On the oil I have found that bar chain oil works the best, as it is real sticky, and after the glue is dry a little denatured alcohol . In my current work both ends of the hing's pins go into closed areas. Will swing by wally world wallgreen's in the am and see what I can get. I like the epoxy the best, but if you have to make a repair the epoxy can be a problem.
When I built this bird 6 years back I used the Gorilla glue vary sparingly, but did not like the tedious clean up. So I most likely will stay with the epoxy.

Thanks for the feed back as this old geezer is always trying to find better ways to do things, but as you know some old ways are the best.
