Henry, when I rode through the sahara in '78 on my RD350 I just used whatever oil I could find. That is exactly what the local 2 stoke riders do/did as 2 stroke oils were virtually unavailable outside of capital cities and were priced at a premium which the locals couldn't afford / wouldn't pay.
I subscribe to the theory that any oil is better than no oil and that there really isn't that much difference between an upper cylinder /crankcase lubricant regardless of whether its mixed with fuel vapours, or not.
Don't sweat it.
