I'm sure it's been discussed ad nauseum, but there are some chains that have O-rings in them.  Some spray lubricants have compounds in them that dissovle certain rubber pieces.  I can't see regular kerosene hurting a chain, but maybe some of the lubricants need to be O-ring friendly.

Good luck, and I hope you sort it out.
