Saint M810 - is the freehub serviceable?

Right, I have a Saint M810 rear hub, and the freehub is making more noise than it used to. Well, it's still mute compared to something like a Hope, but I was wondering if there's any need to grease it?
From what I can tell on Shimano's tech docs, it's non serviceable, and I would just replace the whole thing, is that right?

    you can remove it. pick out the seal from the rear and poor in some oil.

    that is it really.

    Oil huh?
    Since it's still working perfectly otherwise, should I just leave it, or should I be oiling it occasionally?

    Are they a more specific 'hardcore' FH?? Or will a Deore fit? Was looking at picking one up as they can be had quite cheap now?

    Not sure what they ARE the same as, but I know they differ from XT and XTR. May well be unique.
    The closest I can come to a part number is
    Shimano Code Number: Y-3D4 98090
