If the static head was 25mm, this equates to 0.0361 psi or 250 pascals for water, for oil it would be less.
This would hardly be enough to drive a viscous liquid along 10 inches of shaft through relatively small clearances
I have seen first hand where with a static head of 4 feet, the friction of the connecting pipework was great enough to prevent any flow what so ever.
The rod itself will act as a positive displacement pump each time the clutch lever is operated
