If we're talking oil pools then Richard Wilson's 20/50 (1987), is the best and the original as far as I'm aware. It's also probably his best piece of work period,

In the center of that pool of black gold was a real gold ingot worth tens of thousands, which was stolen. Probably not Riffifi style, but bold nevertheless considering Cartier’s no doubt extensive security. I liked to imagine that Gary did it himself. I’m sure the facts are online somewhere.

That’s the closest I can think of to a direct (re)presentation of gasoline as art object.
