One fellow Model Engineer in the Toronto area build air powered model steam engines (he never runs them with steam) uses the FRL (Filter Regulator Lubricator) units from air tools and air tool oil and they work great.

Hi David,
Thanks for posting.
Dad said to fill the airline with oil then attach it to the steam engine and turn on the compressed air.
