Don't go there, at least not yet. Tom is referring to removing the octave-hole inserts with a special tool (which I don't suppose you have).

If you put a tiny ring of vaseline just inside the hole, I suppose it will discourage water from flowing in there. It won't help with condensation much, however. A better solution is the AquaNix octave-bowl insert - perhaps cooper can tell us if this is effective?

Do a google search for AquaNix Oboe to see what this is. It is based on a US-patented idea you can read about here:

Invented by John de Lancie, no less.
