Not an expert here, and never really considered the point, but I think  
it depends on what you're attempting to model.  Are you trying to  
simulate just the castor oil stain, as in a first runup of the  
installed engine at the factory/repair depot/etc., or all the grime  
and filth an oil impregnated doped linen would attract after some  
service?
