    I believe the Yamaha synthetic is top quality oil. I'd run any marine oil of proper viscosity and change it on time. I've been running mystic synthetic.

    Word on the street is 5/16-24 x1/2 stainless bolt with two threads shaved off end fit. It's not ideal but when the part is back ordered for a month it allows one to still fish.
