Last night I removed the table to take a better look. It was definitely chain drive before the pneumatic conversion:
Removed the handwheel shaft and its outer housing. Bearings are only single metal shield type and rough.
Also found that although there's plenty of oil output at the oiler, nothing is coming out the delivery holes in the ways. Guess they are full of old gunge that was once oil, so another one for the task list.
Picked up a couple of new bearings today, and a box of chain to match the sprocket. Hoping I might get lucky and find that the pins in the chain are the same size as the adjuster block on the table:
