I went to go drain my oil catcher earlier today and it was kind of leaking so I put it in two bags to be safe but little did I know it still leaked through both bags so is it possible to get this stain and oil it's self out? Its still fresh and its on my trunk carpet.

Diluted simple green or meguiars all purpose cleaner will handle it.

You should be able to get Simple Green just about anywhere. The other should be available at auto parts stores.

This is also an interior section question, not body & cosmetics. Topic moved.
Purple power works really well for oil, but I don't know that it'd be OK on carpet.

For removing the oil stains from the carpet soak majority of the oil with the help of a paper or absorbent cloth. When the majority of the oil is soaked then put some cornstarch over it and let it stand there for at least an hour. The cornstarch will soak all of the oil from the carpet. After that you can vacuum the area and if needed you can also apply grease fighting detergent over the spot and scrub it with a brush. Then remove the detergent using water and let the carpet dry quickly.
