Any lightweight lubricating oil should do fine, it's not all that cold in
there. 3-in-1, for example. I've heard of Rislone being used for this kind
of application too, but never tried it myself.

Haven't done it in a long time. But if I were desperate, I might look for a
110v AC "muffin fan". Such things used to be found at the electronic
surplus houses for under $20 or so. There are various size and airflow
ratings to meet your needs.
Also, depending on the brand, there may still be parts available for it.
Google for "appliance parts".
