It's soaking in even more mate while you sit there reading this so the longer you leave it the more of a stain.

Try Gunk or Jizer for quick buy or some good degreaser and hot wash.

If you're left with a stain, see if they don't mind you pulling the blocks out and replacing them with blocks from an inconspicuous area. Other than that reclaimed blocks to match in.
