OIL question

I looked and did not find any thing on the search. But does any one know who makes Napa Oil. I have heard it is Mobile one and also pennzoil does any one know who the maker is. I know the gold filters are good that the are made by wix. But not the oil in general. I usually put synthetic oil that is discounted at stores for a better price for most of my cars and walmart high milage for my blazer but it is ready to die. So I thought if Mobile one makes Napa oil I will try and get the napa brand and just keep it in my cars.

Kendall is known for allowing other companies to buy and repackage thier oil. Does the bottle have an insignia of a hand in a circle at the top?

No, its not recycled. Their standard oil is a synthetic blend that works great. Although not available in 20W-50. I run premix in my 2nd gen N/A. No oil metering pump so I'm using their 5W-40 full synthetic. Can't find it locally to purchase so I get my oil changes done at Firestone. Kendall is the only oil they keep in stock. Take your own filter though. I'm not sure who makes their filters.
