Small black sticky patch on fur

Hello. Our little nightmare has come home with a tiny patch of sticky oil on her white fur. It's smaller than a pinky nail so teeny. I tried to clean it off and got some off but she was not happy and ran out the cat flap and is now sitting on top of the garage roof, looking mad.

I'm googling all the scary things about motor oil on cats and panicking! I will try and cut if off when she comes in (if she does. She seems to be having the time of her life outside). Has anyone else's cat come in with a small substance on their fur and lived to tell the tale?

UPDATE! After bribing her with her week worth of treats, I managed to snip the black goo off her fur. It hadn't reached her skin thankfully.
