Anyone know what lubricant would be appropriate for this application?

Hi,
Try a spray which is based on Teflon. I think Liquid wrench has Teflon.

Powdered graphite (often sold to lubricate locks) would work well. It
comes in little tubes and you "puff" it where you want it. Make sure
you get the powdered form, it also comes mixed into an oily liquid but
it not suitable for high temperatures in that form.

Graphite is used for high temperature bearings so it can handle the
heat of the oven.

HTH,
