Looks like about 4 different languages printed on the can?

I count 3 languages. I have no clue on the origins of the can.
Here is the top of one i already have.
BTW I bought the one on eBay as well. Still need the black letter version.
Not a common can by any means. Just about as rare as the 100% Pennsylvania can i got as well this week. IMO

Interesting. I see four languages as well. The top says the can is from the Vacuum Oil Company of Belgium (Bruxelles = Brussels). The bottom of the front says the product was refined and canned in the USA (E.U. de N.A. = Estados Unidos de Norte America).

I'm certainly no expert, but I see two different "versions" of Arabic. Makes me think they are two different languages.
