Hi Bob,
as long as the seals hold well enough, engine oil is fine, but if they leak a little next best thing is 00 grease

G'day Bob,
Masport recommend a SAE 140/ISO VG 800 gear oil for their worm drive boxes.
Penrite's Transoil SAE 140 is the easiest of this type to get in small packs, such as garden machinery uses.
As Norm says, NLGI 00 grade semi-fluid grease would work too, and there again Penrite is the go.
Cheers,
Gadge
