I have to take issue with your italian approach to hyphenation. Perhaps I should take issue on the timmy board, but . . . there is no need for a hyphen because there is no possibility of confusion. Well is an adverb modifying oiled. Ordinarily adverb-adjective combinations are not linked by a hyphen (e.g., finely tuned machine), except where necessary to avoid confusion. Here there is no possiblity of confusion. Is a well oiling the machine? If it were, is the hyphen necessary to distinguish it from, say, a can-oiled machine, or a pump-oiled machine? I think not.

Wrong.
