Chunks or just filings?
I used to use Slick50 but it's just a PTFE solution so anything similar will suffice. It'll quiet things down a little but worn bearings means that
things can move more than they should and hence where the noise comes from. YOu could try and find some thicker oil as that could take up the slack
for a while.
