What Do I Need For My New Old Mill

For an old machine, chainsaw bar oil will work fine as pseudo way oil. It's fairly similar to way oil, and better than motor oil. Very cheap as well.
 
The one that's cracked is a 4". Was thinking about a 5" or 6". Any opinions on size? My mill is a Grizzly G1004.
 
8 X 30 table - I should think a 4-5" vise would work well. My table is 8 X 29 and a Kurt D40 4" vise is perfect for my needs but I only make hobby stuff. I borrowed a 6" Kurt just to see how it fit on my table and it is huge and eats into my Y-travel. Inferring what I know about the 4 and 6 inch sizes, a 5" may work but I suspect even that will be on the large side.
