מנחות פרק ה׳ משנה ד׳
And if one places oil or frankincense on the meal offering of a sinner or on the meal offering of jealousy brought by a sota, he is liable to be flogged for violating the prohibition against placing the oil by itself, and he is liable to be flogged for violating the prohibition against placing the frankincense by itself, as these are two separate prohibitions. If one placed oil upon the meal offering he has disqualified it, but if one placed frankincense upon the meal offering he should gather the frankincense and remove it. In this manner, the meal offering can be salvaged. Furthermore, one violates the prohibition only by placing oil on the meal offering prior to the removal of the handful; if he placed oil on its remainder he does not violate a prohibition. If one placed a vessel with oil on top of a vessel that contains a meal offering of a sinner or a meal offering brought by a sota he did not disqualify the meal offering, as the oil was not placed on the meal offering itself.
וְחַיָּב עַל הַשֶּׁמֶן בִּפְנֵי עַצְמוֹ, וְעַל הַלְּבוֹנָה בִּפְנֵי עַצְמָהּ. נָתַן עָלֶיהָ שֶׁמֶן, פְּסָלָהּ. לְבוֹנָה, יִלְקְטֶנָּה. נָתַן שֶׁמֶן עַל שְׁיָרֶיהָ, אֵינוֹ עוֹבֵר בְּלֹא תַעֲשֶׂה. נָתַן כְּלִי עַל גַּבֵּי כְּלִי, לֹא פְסָלָהּ:

וחייב על השמן. אם נתנו על מנחת חוטא או על מנחת קנאות:
נתן כלי. שיש בו שמן:
על גבי כלי. של מנחת חוטא:
לא פסלה. ולא אמרינן הרי עבר על מה שכתוב בתורה לא ישים עליה שמן, שלא הזהירה תורה אלא שלא יתן השמן לתוך הסולת או לתוך הקמח:
וחייב על השמן – if he placed upon the meal-offering for a sinner or on the meal/grain-offering of jealousy.
נתן כלי – which contains oil.
על גבי כלי – of the meal/grain-offering of the sinner.
לא פסלה – and we don’t say that behold he transgressed on what is written in the Torah (Leviticus 5:11): “he shall not add oil to it [or lay frankincense to it],” for the Torah did not warn other than that he should not place the oil into the fine-flour or into the flour.
