air filter oil is good for the filter, cleans and lubes it up nice. Now the after run oil you dont REALLY need, but its not a bad thing to have. honestly if you keep your air filter clean and engine nice you dont need those.

I ALWAYS use after-run oil, especially after running lean. I am proud to say that I've never smoked an engine. All have die because of EXTREME old age, just like a well cared, never oveworked dog!

you do need after run oil, it will prevent your engine from rusting

You use after-run oil when you aren't planning on running for a couple of weeks, it helps prevent internal engine parts from rusting. You can use WD-40 or something like marvel mystery oil, if you prefer.

Air filter oil goes on the foam prefilter to trap larger particles of dust/dirt. The oil they sell for this purpose probably is the absolute best, since it is extremely sticky. Most people though use after-run oil and are perfectly fine, so I doubt it makes a great difference. Personally, I go the after-run oil route.
