Where the arrow is pointing to on the speedo, there is a little brass cup in there. You need to carefully pry that out. Underneath that is a wick. So you can apply a few drops of oil there and hand spin the speedometer to help distribute the oil.
On mine, the brass cup was smashed in, and wouldn't come out. So I had to drill it out. I replugged it with a small set screw after oiling. It just acts as a dust cover. So doesn't need to go in very far.
You can probably figure it hasn't been lubed since it left E. Grand Ave.
