mine stunk of oil when i first fitted it, so do most of the exhaust we fit at work, but we use the same gloves over and over so they get oil on and then it's transfered to the exhaust and burns off when started, did you have any oil at all on your hands? could just be that burning off, take it for a bit of a run and see if the smell is still their, if it is keep an eye on oil levels and look for leaks
