Kevin,
   Please don't quote me on this as I am by no means an expert in this area, but I believe the "spout" you're referring to is for lubricating the bearings on the fan motor.  It should not be "full" at all, but merely a spot to put a couple drops of oil every now and then so the bearings don't burn up.  I am certain someone that truly knows what they're talking about will chime in soon, so just be patient.
