To remove the oil completely you will have to disassemble the aperture assembly. But re-assembling an aperture with 15 or more blades is demanding... |

My suggestion: Save the bits and pieces to that Canon f1.2 lens and sell it on eBay or elsewhere. Would be a shame to toss it out. Someone always seems to be looking for a better front or rear lens surface. |
