Any kind of lubricant (grease, silicone) is preferable to WD40, which should only be used on stuck metal parts BTW.
WD40 is not a lubricant per se as it protects metal from rust and corrosion, penetrates stuck parts, displaces moisture and, strangely enough, cleans grease, grime, and other marks from most surfaces.
Therefore, if you want to lubricate the seat belt spool, use a silicone spray or grease, but not WD40.
