You aren't supposed to use any lube at all when you are building it and measuring clearances.
But when everything is spec'd out and ready for final assembly, you need to coat EVERYTHING with engine assembly lube. Not regular oil. Assembly lube is very thick and sticky and will provide vital lubrication during intial engine startup.
