I have used Petro-Gell, used on surgery tables, made from mineral oil, like a gel after cleaning with acetone on the cam without any migration. Also never brought up is the points return spring pressure. Don’t know about OMC but Mercury service manuals show spring pressure that is acceptable as not to wear out the rubbing block or float. The tool looks like a scale of sorts with increments of tension.
