This is the second Union monster that can equip itself to any Machine-Type monster, the first being Heavy Mech Support Platform.
In fact, it is one of six Union monsters that can equip to a copy of itself, the other five being the aforementioned Spirit of the Six Samurai, Machina Peacekeeper, Machina Gearframe, Heavy Mech Support Platform, and Metallizing Parasite - Lunatite.
If looked closely on Oilmans chest, the words Heros Oil is inscribed, referring to the way this monster is dressed.
The card's name and image might be referencing the Oilman Robo from Custom Robo, which, ironically, were the weakest possible parts you could equip.
Like Elemental HERO Bubbleman and Elemental HERO Sparkman, Oilman might also share his name with a robot master from the Megaman franchise.
