[   After several years, the oil in many types of commercially available modeling
[   clay begins to separate.  The remaining solid gets harder, crumbly, and
[   lighter.  What's worse, the leaking oil can really damage a finish. 

  I don't know what commercial modeling clay is being talked about
here, but I haven't experienced this problem. For the last umpteen
years I have been buying my modeling clay for Toys R Us. It is made
for children and I doubt that any harmful oils are used to make it.
One box last forever. The only change that I have noticed is that it
get harder with age , and I have yet to have a finish ruined.
