Most bronze nbushings anymore are 'Oilite'. It a sintered product- chips/powder pressind into shape e=then heated enough to fuse together, Grease is then forced into the pores between the flakes. No lube necessary. And if you do oil them . much later in their lives, you might be washing grease out as well as oiling.
Throw-out bearings usually have a groove inside that is/gets filled with grease. FFPWs have a zerk.
