Winged victory: VM Yeates. Granada Publishing. First published by Jonathan Cape Ltd 1934. Can't find an ISBN. (fiction section of course).
Great read.
GRIFFO. I had a 500cc JA Prestwitch, (JAP), motorbike years back with a total loss oil system. Nearly owned a Luton Minor reported to have been salvaged from The Antarctic from one of the expeditions. I believe it had similar.
T28D has a big noisy round engine thing that also appears to have a total loss (eventually) oil system.
I wonder if tar pits have 'Mycobacterium Tuberculosis?
Anyway the concept, (Avgas Base), certainly has merit.

Reason: Correct the engine name.
