If they are shaped to clip into an oil pump nozzle they are called nipples,
and can be bought. I don't know the name of the others which are not so
shaped and are almost flush with the surface they are set in, though I have
made a few for my Myford ML7.

If you are looking to buy and are going to the London Model Engineering exhibition this guy is listed as being there.
I bought the oilers you describe from him at the ME exhibition in November. He has a wide selection of hard to find bits and bobs.
No connection apart from being a satisfied customer who would like to see a useful business stay in business.

The trouble is that his web pages are empty and I can not find any of
his stock.

Then you click on the oilers and get nothing but a page which shows no oilers . There is a search facility that asks for part nos but that is no use.
