Has anyone done the research into what the correct lubicants in todays's 
products would be? eg Castrol makes 3 gear oils, Hypoy, Hypoy S, and 
Synthetic.

What what I've read so far, GL-5 oils are corrosive to bronze and hence 
wouldn't be a good choice for the gearbox. Type GL-4 has fewer additives, 
but is it the correct oil?

Any help much appreciated!

Thanks
