I you want to keep the finish intact give this a try,...I did it once before and it worked quite well.
Get a roll of toilet paper and wrap a big wad of it around the head of the stock and also push paper in all the inletted crevices,...basically put it all around were the oil is soaked in, then wrap it all with tin foil, stick it in the oven at low temp. about 100-150 deg F and leave it there for a hour or so,... then take it out replace the paper and repeat the whole thing until the paper is not drawing any more oil,...you'll know what I mean when you take it out the first time, the paper will be yellow from the oil
This wont harm the finish, just don't get it too hot and make sure you tell the wife or she may crank the oven up and stick in that pot roast when your not looking!
