I`ve have used k2R in the past but,
But I find the best way is  use a good amount of Acetone soaked on a rag scrub the parts you need cleaned real good leaving some Acetone soaked in the wood ,
Then, fill the nose with " floor dry "Or "kitty litter"  floor dry is better ,,,
you can buy a bag at the local Car Parts store
then place a heat lamp over the area ,,,even make a box or cover ,, to trap the heat
and over night it will be dry as a bone,
it`s kinda messy But it`s the best way I`ve found so far and,
it will draw the oil out completely

I'll try to find it at the hardware store today (Ace and True Value are suppposed to carry the stuff). If they don't have it, I found a place that sells it online. Thanks everyone - if this works as well as you say I should be able to buy some time for this airplane after all. Of course just how much time that is depends on the pilot...
