Old Lancias seem to run well on Comma Classic 20-50 if changed annually.

I use 20w50 or 20w60 for the top and SAE 90 (or thicker .....) in the lower guides using a syringe and tube

Early Aurelias and s.2 Appia run nicely w 30w straight oil, I think 20w was originally specified. Always used straight weight oil.
