Alpine clearly states "Oiling is via mist not emersion". Besides, if I add more it gets spat out.

Very interesting comment as I noticed after refilling my S/C oil after replacing nose cone (Bearing Failure) that I had white smoke out of tail pipe on initial engine start. Figured I had reassembled improperly or messed up the seal between oil containment housing & impeller housing. Thus S/C oil was being sucked into intake manifold. Turns out it appears I just overfilled the S/C oil level. Who'd a thought!
I still can't fathom how the oil lubricates the Nose bearing via mist.
