Witte 3 hp oil for main bearings

Have a witte 3 hp engine open crank and the main bearing caps have a small trough with two holes for the oiling system. This one is different from my other engines and I need to know what kind of oil I should use and how often should it be added. When you fill the trough it doesn't last long and the oil is gone. Any help is greatly appreciated. Gcm
 
No form of tank with small pipes to keep the troughs topped up ? I would guess that 30wt oil would be OK, but apparently the operator must be nearby to add oil. Odd. HTH
 
I realize this post is older than the hills (2010). Yet instead of dumping oil to a open bearing, get some felt and put it in the pipe to the bearing surface. The felt will act as a metering for the oil and keep the bearing lubed.
