Is there a way to lubricate the gear cable to prevent seizing?

Nope, just replace the cables.

Are these specific to engines or universal?

Re: Forward/Reverse cable

Is there a schematic that will show the attacment points?
How do I remove the control so I can access the cable mounting point?

Depends on what control you have. It may not be Volvo. Post a picture.
