Significant Technical Input
This is one of those cases where most anything is better than nothing. I normally use a silicone grease, mainly because it's always on my cart and handy. Bearing grease, motor oil, vaseline, etc. will also work, although I prefer greases over oils as they'll stay in place longer. The purpose is to keep the seal lubed up until engine oil takes over the job.
