Hi All
I assume it's not safe to breathe air from an oil lubricated air
compressor at sea level.

As an alternative to all the other posturing, here's a thought.

Specifically relating to oil contamination of the air. If the air's clean
enough to use in a paint spray gun, it's clean enough to breath.

This does not account for carbon monoxide from the gas engine driving the
compressor or re-circulated isocyanate fumes from the paint booth :-)
