Acetone, mineral sprits, brake cleaner, skip the gasoline due to its danger level if you can. Purple power is my followup go to. Sometimes if you apply it early and clean it up you can get away with using just this. Also what ever remains just keep spraying purple power on it for a few days to weeks until gone.

Good luck

Oil base stain, try oil. Used, then clean up oil, or new will be easier to clean up. Any Machinist or Mechanic can tell you motor oil will clean crud from your hands.

I must confess, I've never spilled oil stain on concrete
I have spilled it on a finished tile floor and the grout was uncleanable
That was a costly mistake

You'll be scrubbing it with Muratic acid before your done...

I never ever tried to clean up anything that I spilled on a concrete floor. Let It lay. LOl

Try Acetone followed by Dawn dish soap.

It's not coming out. You might lighten it some...but it's there to stay
