Walmart carries "Marine Lower Unit Lubricant"......It has some special corrosion inhibitors/additives just for marine applications....Walmart also carries the little plastic hand pumps for injecting the oil into the lower unit....very handy.

never seen a old Suzuki like yours, but my guess would be for flushing the water system
