I am needing to purchase air tool oil for Porter Cable nail guns. I can't locate a local Porter Cable source. Any suggestions on a suitable replacement? Dewalt?

Any air tool oil will work. I use Marvel myself on all my air tools regardless of the manufacturer.

I also use Marvel Oil. Make sure whatever you buy it is for tools, not the compressor. Two different types.

Marvel is sold at lowes and menards and prob home depot. Small black bottle with red spout under $5. Passload has a good one too. Small white bottle.

How about Lucas air tool oil.

HF sells air tool oil......Marvel Mystery oil is good and so is automatic transmission oil.

Black bottle, red flip up top... sounds like what I have in the shop. I don't remember it being an issue to source it. Any big box should have something.

Any 10w will do. Have an older squarish bottle that was sold as electric motor oil. And now they sell it for air tools, whatever you can find for the cheapest is the ticket.

I have quite a stash of Snap-On air oil left from my mechanical days, so I use that.
No idea who bottled the oil for them.
