The question of oiling the bore (when, how, with what?) is
a perpetual issue among recorder players and makers (i.e.,
those who play and make "professional" recorders at $xxx to
$xxxx each in a variety of different woods, not your $60
varnished-wood or plastic beginner instrument).

Not all the issues are relevant to the clarinet, but the
following articles on the web might be useful:

http://www.iinet.net.au/~nickl/wood.html
"Wood, Oil, and Water", Raymond and Lee Dessy
(I think other articles on the same topic by the same authors
appeared in 1995 or 1996 in American Recorder Magazine
and (less sure) Woodwind Quarterly)

(this one won't load for me right now, maybe it's been taken down
since my bookmark is about a year old)

Oiling the Recorder, by Lee Collins

These are all taken from the Recorder Page, ed. Nicholas Lander
(rough equivalent of The Clarinet Pages, ed. Mark Charette)
at http://www.iinet.net.au/~nickl/recorder.html
