I don't think that's possible within the Pix firewall.

Short term - The quickest way is to modify your dns internally to have a zone entry for 'oil.com' pointing the request to a private IP scheme.

Long term - You may want to look at some web blocking software.

Does the pix 525 not allow you to block the ports normally used?

It is important to remember that millions of websites are multi-homed (which means many servers, using several dfferent ip addresses are load balanced), and that websites can (and do often) change their ip addresses. This is quite a task to keep up once you get more than a couple sites setup in the PIX using IP addresses.
