The title says it all. What would you lubricate the clutch release arm pivot bushing with? I'm thinking graphite powder. I am afraid any sort of grease would degrade the bushing plastic.

use some silicone grease Dow Corning 111
Or the hi temp thick grease that you would use on the input shaft splines

Silicone grease is plastic friendly ... it's been used for decades on applications including plastic pumps and valves.

Coat with solid white paste (AOS version 1260006).

Per the factory manual for a DD clutch.

I use lubriplate 105, seems to be close to what ever the factory stuff is supposed to be, but my guess is any white lube will be fine.
