You could hit up a local Cat dealer for a 5 gallon pail of Cat DEO for a CI grade oil also. https://parts.cat.com/wcs-static/pdfs/PEHJ0059-02.pdf
CAT DEO is only CJ-4 now, when you try to order the old number in DBS it says order this number which is CJ-4.
When I worked at the CAT dealer I would order, Conoco Power-D 15W-40 CI-4+ for the older 3500 engines, not that they needed it, an oil that could withstand extra abuse if needed. Standby Generators often run 50 hours per year. Change oil 1-3 years depending on the maintenance scope.
