Need help with finding parts in India

My nozzle, and probably my thermistor are broken. Looking for spares in local market, but I am not sure if these are compatible with my printer

Nozzle: Lots of options here, can I pick any E3D v6 nozzle ? https://www.amazon.in/s?k=e3d+nozzle&i=industrial&ref=nb_sb_noss_2

Thermistor: https://robu.in/product/e3d-thermistor-cartridge/ OR https://www.amazon.in/Tesseract-Thermistor-Temperature-Pre-Wired-Insulated/dp/B08QJM5GXC/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=thermistor+e3d&qid=1631308844&s=industrial&sr=1-1 - Not sure if molex connector is the same

PTFE: https://robu.in/product/ptfe-2x4mm-teflon-tubing-for-3d-printers-1-75mm-filament-1m/ - Measured the size, seems the same 2mm inner, 4 mm outer.

Lubricant: What sort of lubricant/grease should one get? I am guessing the 50 cent machine oil won't do.. Also the lubricant that came seems to have solidified. Is that normal?

Thanks!

PTFE rod or pipe?

I need the PTFE for the heatend.  Can I but a 1m tube and cut parts from there, or must I get tubes - like this - https://www.amazon.in/Xsentuals-meter-PTFE-1-75mm-Filament/dp/B084T5FXPP/ref=sr_1_4?dchild=1&keywords=ptfe+tube&qid=1631339619&sr=8-4#customerReviews ?

Got answered on another forum. Can be closed.

1. nozzle can pick any E3D v6

2. thermistor - the robu.in one is probably right. Its relatively pricy though

3. PTFE rod - I got these: https://www.amazon.in/gp/product/B08BJ7DWBP/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 ,

4. lubricant I got PTFE grease as recommended by an artivle. PTFE oil is supposedly better. But I couldn't find it locally.
