I was thinking the same thing.  Leon, will an
extremely light oil be able to keep the seperation
between the bearings and shaft?  On the other hand,
will it 'wet' the walls of the cooler better and
thereby transfer heat more efficiently?

Straight 30W HD is recommended in marine diesels with their powerful “kicks”. I think it is adequate for the smooth running rotary.
