On our Brooks Flyer saddles (mine and hers) I spray a little Boeshield at the top and bottom of the spring where it is bolted to the rails, and a little bit on the nose bolt.
I also apply a thin layer of grease to the rails before tighting down the seat post clamp. Pretty much everywhere metal meets metal. One of those points is usually the culprit.
