"...assuming it doesn't prove too thick..." More about all the other stuff in it that might react with finishes and materials. Mind you, motor oil is the only thing we got in The Queen's Service.
Castrol is just a brand name.
In any case, grease is a lube. Oil is for rust protection/prevention. Grease on moving parts. Oil on everything else.
