Elder's in our church generally carry a vile of oil on their key chain
("be prepared"), and a drop is placed on the recepient's head. To me
"pour" means that more liquid is flowing than one drop, like pouring a
beverage into a glass; although I guess the physical motion of tipping
the vile,and tipping a pitcher is the same.
