Sealed bearings, you can try some lube but don't over do it as lube attracts dirt. Budget and shop for a new fan now, in my experience you're at the start of a failing fan and it will need replacing, sounds like the bearings are starting to go bad.
its about 8 years old works fine but it has that whine sound not super loud you get used to it fast. call the dealer they said about $108.00

Bingo. Don't try to bandaid it with oil. Replace it now and you are set for another 8 years. Buy the replacement rear blade as well, because yours will be all crapped up and can be a real biotch to get off the shaft.
