I had made a post reconsidering my position and accepting your comments, even using images of the rules, and it aint short... and I had to discard it
The Oil Rule is AfA Option 48.
The save oil and save BPs rules is AfA Option 31.
So if you do not use Option 48 but use Option 31 you cannot save oil, because oil is like any other resource. However, since Option 31 doesnt need option 48 to exist, you should be able to save BPs, IMO.

Confirmed.
It has allowed to save BPs today. Don't know why it didnt in the old times.
The bad thing is that either i messed up the resources of the JA, or more probably the game did, and saved the 2 NEI oil resources in Mukden. So I will have to take them to Japan with more convoys because these should not be there (and I didnt burn them the previous turn).
Well, yes, Option 31 is selected, so you could save OIL or BPs... if Option 48 had been selected as weel, which is not the case, and because it hasnt, then the Oil resources are like the other resources and cannot be saved.

Good point.
I am sure it can be argued by lawyers.
