You're best using RH Eb and forked F in this key (G minor here and its relative Bb Major) as it's keeping everything under the right hand fingers as well as being much easier to do than using the LH F key.

You can keep the RH Eb key held down when playing forked F if it improves the tone quality if the forked F - some oboes do benefit having the Eb key held down for the upper register forked F even with the forked F vent fitted, but that depends on the instrument and also your reeds.
