Supercharger Oil??

Does any one know what spec and make the oil is that runs with the front and rear gear train on our chargers?

Need to know as i have a second hand 5th gen that i will smooth myself but when taking it apart lost the oil (very smelly) , was very surprised also how easy it was to disassemble and how rough the casting is around the outlet port , can only guess that the air,inlet and outlet castings will be rough as a hedgehogs *** also!

Thanx, Rick.

M45 in a miata takes 4 oz, IIRC.

GM stores sell it in the proper quantity, ~$6 last time I bought some. And it smells nasty...
