Recommended Grease for lubing clutch pedal assembly?

I have a squeaky clutch pedal and have isolated it to the ball pivot.
Any recommendations on grease?

Thick, thin? Lithium?

so i tried some WD40, but that hasn't helped so far.

Is it okay just spraying it up there, i was trying to be careful and avoid any contact with connectors, but its a bit hard.

I might try and spray the spring.

WD40 is a cleaning product, the belief that it lubricates is largely in error. It will provide some sort of lubricant for a bit, but not long.

The squeak is traditionally due to welding points that are starting to fail, not anything that needs lubrication.

However, any standard grease from the auto parts store is viable if you want to try to lubricate stuff.

Lithium grease would be good and less messy than typical auto grease.
