Are any of these oilers proper?

Sorry for all the dumb questions, but I'm really out of my knowledge base on older tools.

The only oiler that may be correct for the jeep or GMTK would be the oiler second from the left. What is the diameter of the base? Is it 4"?

I picked up an unusual 3-1/2” oiler at the Tahoe flea on Sunday. Has anybody run across one of these before?
