I'd do the old camera/clock trick -- dilute some synthetic oil about 1 drop to 20 or so with lighter fluid and apply with a tooth pick -- just enough to cause the lighter fluid to flow into the points where the shaft and housing contact. This will "melt" any grease in there and thin it just enough to stay fluid without either causing it to get places you don't want it or drying back out.
