I want to lube faucet rubber o-rings. Petroleum shouldn't be used on rubber.
Would dielectric (bulb/sparkplug) grease from an auto parts store be the best (and cheapest) bet?

Many Oatey silicone greases contain petroleum. Why?
Oatey Silicone Grease

Petroleum oil-based valve and faucet stem grease
Oatey Plumber's Faucet and Valve Grease

Not for use on rubber or synthetic O-rings
Petroleum Based formula
They do make this with no petroleum:

But I don't see it for sale through online search so it's likely hard to find and an plumbing supply store only item, and the local one is closed when I'm off work (if they even have it). And I'm sure it's $10+ for something I need a BB size amount of.
