Firstly explain to them that you may not get it all out.
Then explain that you will also have to clean the whole drive as well.
Then explain that the stain itself may require several visits.

It doesn’t matter about the stain!  The crucial point is, how deep it has gone in to the concrete.  Was it warm or cold oil?  Ask the question because warm oil will be deeper.  Finally give them at least a rough idea of cost!  You may find they say forget it.  Too many people sadly believe that you have  a bottle of “ Magic oil stain remover “ on your van and it will only take you a minute. Educate them first before you waste precious time.
