Drop some kitty litter on the oil spot and let it sit for 15 minutes. Then come back and really grind it into the spots with your shoe. Sweep it up and if necessary, repeat. It will come out.

@SLCHOE will that work on old stains?

For old stains the best stuff is actual kleen-sweep or similar products. Kitty litter may work but probably not as quick/well.
I have pulled old stains out of concrete before and the real stuff worked the best by letting it sit over top of the stain for 20 minutes and then moving it around with a pushbroom as to get fresh stuff back on top of the stain. Working it in with your foot also helps pull it out.

i got mine from amazon, i'm banking on delco since i really don't want to do this more than once.
Part
Also got this thread compound instead of the expensive GM stuff it says to use: Thread sealant (they have it at auto stores too for the same price basically)

Yep that's the part. You really don't need any thread sealant as the sensor comes with some pre-applied and also has a crush washer.

Interesting, the thing I read said apply some gm sealant and didn't mention the part already had it. Guess I'll get a refund for that six bucks thanks

Yeah no problem. Iif you look at the picture of the sensor, you can see the white sealant on the threads. I have installed many of these and never had any issues by not adding more GMS (GM Sealant).

Finally got some time to put the new part in. Gauge still works so....now just to see if my leak is gone. Does this old one "look" like it was leaking? It's fairly clean...

What part did you guys get I got mine yesterday from Autozone and the sensor they gave me has one pin and mine has 3 and although plug is the same it doesn't go in the new sensor. I went back and checked with the old part number that's on the original sensor and it brings up the same sensor they gave me. Could it be delco only?
