Thank you so very much!
I found the Dinatrol oil. I'm thinking maybe its better if i repair (not me, but someone who can) all and not only the small areas? Because i have seen pics of people doing that and protected the car with black mold under.

Open the rear door, photos of the area of the sill seam

And looking at the sill end inside the rear wheel arches, are the sealing plugs intact ? (about 2inch square)

Oh yes i have that too. I hate it..

I want to fix it, but the Dinitrol oil, i found 2 thin LM oils. One was just "oil" and one was with wax oil. Which one to get?
