I wouldn't worry about it. Many of the older in-line pumps either get saturated with diesel fuel - or dry out and sieze plungers. All an in-line pump is - is a set of separate injection pumps - one for each cylinder - riding on a common camshaft. It's the camshaft that requires the oil. As those individual injector pumps get worn, they drip into the camshaft box. No big deal. Drain/check once in a while, refill, and don't worry about it. I've got several in-line Simms and some in-line CAVs - and they all do it. I've also had to unstick many that got run dry. Often - one pump plunger will get stuck and the tractor starts skipping. I've pried many loose with a screwdriver - then filled the cam box with fresh oil - and all worked fine again.
Newer pumps are often more sophisticated and use a common fill from the engine's oil.
