Oil: Basically it doesn't matter.
Here's the oil thread on the site if you want to check it out:

There is an oil filter in the bottom center of the case but it's just a little screen, not a big filter like you may be used too on more modern cars.

You clean and re-use it when you change the oil.

If you don't have an Owner's Manual yourself you can lots of information here on the site to learn some basics:
