Hi -
Aluminum as a bearing surface? I don't believe it.
Mn2S as a lubricant? It's a terrific lubricant but
are you really sure that they use THAT? If it's what
I used to lubricate gears years ago, it's terribly
messy stuff and I wouldn't want it near any of my
cameras, let alone my Leica. But I really don't know
if this is what Gary Toop's talking about.
