I have a workpiece that I want to give an oil finish, but a certain area needs to stay oil-free, because I need to attach a part later on using hide glue. What masking method is safe for oil?

I think the masked-off area is easy to spot:![https://pxscdn.com/public/m/_v2/632520794410387667/586f75268-5004eb/54tFPFbmKaSG/yV5SGVL56BsQtuSTgzIKTsIDRqGYX8BS2B2hUrTR.jpg](https://pxscdn.com/public/m/_v2/632520794410387667/586f75268-5004eb/54tFPFbmKaSG/yV5SGVL56BsQtuSTgzIKTsIDRqGYX8BS2B2hUrTR.jpg)
The body got an alcohol-varnish and the fingerboard is oiled. Worked pretty well.
