Was out of town for a few days when I got home my wife had bumped the sawhorse my Nissan 4-stroke 5 force motor was mounted on. It got knocked over and laid in the wrong position resulting in oil in the carb. fuel lines, fuel pump. When I pulled he spark plug it was covered in oil. Is here any way for me to clean it out?
 
oil and gas will mix so there is no need to be concerned about it. the motor will smoke until you flush the oil out is all.

refill the engine with the correct mount of oil and drain the fuel system best as you can then it may be hard to start or run rough at first but then it will all be normal again.

for any oil on the outside use carb cleaner and a rag to clean that up and spray carb cleaner on the plugs and liberally into the cylinders then pull the rope a few times to cycle it around the cylinders and then try to start it

Drain carb.
Leave plug out, and cycle pull cord briskly until oil is expelled; mop up the oil.
Check oil level; if necessary, top up.
Reinstall plug.
Pull like crazy until it fires (in the water of course).
Once the smoke clears, you are OK.
If severe, you may want a new plug afterward.
