Do you mean asphalt?

If so buy a can of engine degreaser from Repco / Supercheap / spray on / gently scrub / hose off.

Do not use a solvent based cleaner otherwise your asphalt will be removed as well as the stain!

Pacer make a product called Multi Plus, I've use it straight on oil marked hot mix with good results.
We t the area then poor a little on, give it a wee scrub and wash off.
As said by Sanders4 you need to be very careful when not to use solvents as they eat asphalt.
Pacer have a branch in Christchurch

Don't use a can of $3 degreaser from Supercheap. Tried some a few weeks ago and as stated above started to soften the asphalt.

Just leave it and it will go away in time.

Asphalt is oil based a few drops of engine oil will be like giving it a drink.
