When I've had oil stains before, I've used a paste made out of washing powder and water and a scrubbing brush applied directly to the stain. Water as hot as you can stand and lots of soaking.
My mother is good with all sorts of oil stains, she can even shift waterproof grease, I'm not entirely sure how...

Make up an elaborate story about aliens/tanker crashes/ international terrorists/disgruntled german football supporters, etc- you won't be believed but it will be impossible to disprove!!!!!!

Arrggh...
..I got a whole load on a white boiler suit. I soaked it twice in detergent for 48 hours a time. Then it's been washed at least twice. And the stain is more or less visibile.
I don't think that anyone is a true Cit owner until they have had a real dousing in the stuff. This should ideally happen on your own drive, not by Heathrow on the M25. I seem to recall that a green dye is put in specifically to show leaks.
Matalan do cheap jeans, BTW...

I'm afraid your doomed. There is no way out:
She will detect washing and replacement clothing due to her heightened female sense of smell.
What ever you do don't dispose of the evidence or she will assume a far worse reason.
The only thing you can do is to relax, sit back, tell her her mother was right after all, and take it on the chin.

Overalls had been washed a couple of weeks previously, took them into garage, a little dab of green stuff here and there, act all innocent, then show Mrs F offending items ask her if she washed overall properly, "of course she said"
"well how come this has come through onto my clothes says I"
Cue Mrs F's puzzled exppression RESULT[:p]
