thanks in advance

either one. Brass was still i stores, and plastic was being made.

If you ask this question of some dealers you are likely to be told "plastic" - there are an untold number of these for sale. If you want a brass oiler, specify that but be prepared to pay a little bit more than for plastic. There is, in fact, a site for LE oilers but I've lost the address.

I think this is the site bezoar refers to:
