Really?
Your 'moral code' suggests that it perfectly acceptable for your group to murder someone who is only (so far) challenging a trespasser and thief on *their* land.
I hope I never meet you or yours either before or after an event.

Neither do I.
The *best* I can expect from this situation is to applolgise, explain that you weren't aware that the scrapyard was still owned by anyone. Explain that you want the oil and are willing to barter for it. Discuss and agree a price. *Leave the oil* and return at some later date to make the exchange for it.
