A shot or less of brake fluid when added to oil will swell seals, but  
use at your own risk.

I personally would try the dino oil you have first, but really once  
your clutch has absobed the oil it's never going to "come back". It  
may get a tad better, but the disc absobs the oil like a sponge.
