There are quite a few people on BITOG who use MMO regularly in their oil and/or gas. And as far as the MSDS showing that it doesn't have anything that does anything, dermapaint has posted the following quite a few times (I don't know if it is originally his, but he is the one who posts it most often):

Oil of wintergreen - for the scent
- Not just for the cent, is also a cleaner. may aid lubricity.
Red Dye - for the color
- well this one just colors the stuff
Zmax is 99% mineral oil. And it has yet to be proved it does what it claims.
