Default 525 Mineral Oil for A/C o-rings??

I'm trying to do some work on my A/C and the service manual says to use 525 viscosity mineral oil on the o-rings. I'm calling around and nobody has this stuff (even the local GM dealers). Is there something else I can use? One A/C shop said just use PAG oil on them, but the service manual says specifically not to do that.

Any ideas?

PAG oil is what is recommended on the service cd that I have. I couldn't get any of that so I just used engine assembly grease for the o-rings.
