About 1/7 barrel, if you use the figures for that turkey guts -> oil process.

I suppose that *would* be blood for oil...

None, his remains are just toxic waste which need to be disposed of appropriatly.

Jayson:

Would that be the nearest ditch, then?

Well, there are 42 gallons to a barrel of oil, if that will help. (I seem to recall reading that there are no actual barrels of that size, at least for oil, so you may want to look for a different sized container.)

A landfill or pit latrine would be appropriate.
