RE: Grease recommendations for worm gear?
As per spec... the HP-97 service manual recommends lubricating the thrust bearing (the tip of the worm gear) with molybdenum disulphide grease. Dow Moly G or equivalent.

Basic Moly disulphide grease is black - matching the residue on worm gears from classic machines.
Dow Moly G-1056 is yellow in color - similar to the residue on 41C worm gears.

Other than Dow, Yamaha sells this type of grease on Amazon.
