I have a cheap Chinese oil can with brass pump mechanism submerged in the oil in the usual manner. But it SQUEAKS like a dry door hinge every time the plunger is pushed down or released. How can they make a mechanism that is completely submerged in oil squeak?

It is most likely hydraulic creaking as the oil is pushed through a hole.
