Oh my lord !! Who told you to oil the drums and shoes ? He oughtta be slapped for trying to get you killed !! Did he tell you to check your flasher fluid, your muffler bearings, your high-speed lock-washer indicator adjustment locator screw too ??? I hope you are NOWHERE around me when yer driving !
There is no such term as brake oil. Brake fluid yes, but that's for the reservoir, and the brake lines to the calipers, and wheel cylinders. To put a lubricant on the certain areas of pads, and shoes, you can use lithium grease, sparingly.
none, just some lube on the backing plates where the shoe's contact ( the small flat spots on the plate only)
