Probably most any oil would be fine once the suede was sealed with an oil barrier, like the silicone caulk, to prevent the oil from migrating onto your clothes. I think I'd lean toward synthetic or petroleum-based oils though, since it seems animal oils may also have natural salts in it (though I realize tallows and lards were used in the old days).
