The reason for posting this question is since I've never owned one
before, I did some research on how to maintain a snow blower, and
every site I saw said to make sure the chute is lubricated.

My 35 year old McKee snowblower has not had any lubrication on the chute in 
years. It will build up with hard packed snow and become almost impossible 
to turn with the crank until I take it off and clean out the ice. I doubt 
that grease would help. None of the wearing parts have shown undue wear or 
need for replacement.
