I saw a YouTube video by a guy called theo"something" and it was about topping up PCs with oil so I followed the steps but it just came out the other side. I opened it up to find I didn't have an oil pump and I had actually just drowned my PC in motor oil. I REALLY need suggestions ASAP NOW!!!

TheoJoe? That's a troll channel he created.

WHAT?

He has two channels. One is a troll channel, and the other is a real account he uses to help people.

Take it apart and soak everything in isopropyl alchohol 99%, then let it dry for a day or two, put it back together and hope it works.

One word to describe this all: Impressive.

Yeah, could I?

No considering it said in the description that it is a joke and will destroy your computer.

No. He mentions that it's a troll account in the description. He is therefore not responsible for the damage.

If the PC wasn't on it has a good chance of the parts still being alive. Do what I said that post earlier.
