Depends in the gun and brand largely. And if is done as a previous poster pointed out, don't just put a drop of oil on the area and leave it, cycle the part (fill valve in this case) a few dozen times to work the oil in, then leave it sit.

And I'll say, are you 100% sre the fill valve is leaking, or the noise is coming form the bottom of the mag? Both are completely different fixes. Fill the mag, pour enough oil into the fill valve hole and watch for bubbles. If none, then the leaking is from the inner gasket (baseplate).

Dumb question, but what GBB mag is this for? If it's a TM, good chance you can fix the leaking by snugging down the screw on the baseplate (have fixed a half dozen leaky TM Hi-Capa mags by that alone!)
