Hi Bagga,
Best to ask a gun smith on what oil to use for the leather seal..I’m not an expert, but the Ballistol oil at Kiehberg or one of the other stores should be good for protecting and caring for the leather seals.
For Precihole, I suggest you call their customer service directly and they will be able to tell you what you need for maintaining of your air rifle.

Regards,
Maanbir

Hi BaggaFx,

Presently I am using the non corrosive oil available at the local gun store. You might also find similar product available online.

Silicone oil can be used for leather washers.
