Gene, Yah, there is a diff between the two. I recently saw a link on the Practical Machinist forum for a rather nice oil gun that was also relatively inexpensive. The oil zerks look quite similar to the grease zerks, but a regular grease gun doesn't seem to fit them very well. I'll dig around and see if I can find the link to that oil gun the fella posted when I get a chance later this morning.
