It's a bit hard to follow your description, but I'm hoping that you were trying to describe the fuel delivery assembly (fuel pump/governor/injection pump). Colloquially, it's usually just called the injection pump. If I'm correct (that you're trying to describe the injection pump), the lack of a dipstick suggests there may be a threaded plug on the side - somewhere below the fill cap. Remove this plug, pour oil into the fill opening, stop when it comes out the side hole. The little sump only holds a few ounces, so don't overdo it. Replace the side plug and the fill cap.
As far as what type oil, that's personal preference. Some - as a matter of convenience - use the same kind of oil they use in the engine. In many diesels, that's 15W40. My preference is compressor oil, ISO100 full detergent.
