Buy a cheap plastic pump up compressed air garden sprayer at WaldoWorld for about ten bucks. Cut the spray tip off the plastic wand, and hose clamp a piece of hose on the wand, and, using an appropriate sized hose barb adapter, connect the other end of the hose to the main oil gallery, perhaps at the pressure gauge port.

The oil may deteriorate parts of the sprayer over time, before you can use it again, but, heck, for about $10.00, no big deal.
