When it comes to having it overhauled, have cork pads fitted almost throughout (down to the C# pad - the three large pads can be either skin or white leather), and don't have any natural cork glued under any adjusting screws or on linkages as it doesn't wear very well.

Take it to an oboe specialist to have all the work done rather than a general repairer as they'll know how to set it all up properly.
