Heavy Oil goes in the one end and lubricant comes out the other - You use pipes to transport both of these liquids. Hit [alt] in the game so you can see the connection points labeled.

U have lay a pipe from output side (Green liquid drop) the Chemical plant to the building that requires lubricant and if you want u can have storage tank in between for storage.

Yes, you need to use a lvl 2 assembly machine to make the electric engines.

After you place it and choose the engine to build, you can hit "r" and the input connection for the lubricant will rotate around, so you can use a convenient side to connect up to the chem plant.

Thanks for asking this and thanks for the answers. I Was at the same spot trying to make an electric engine. I swear I tried to run a pipe to the assembly machine but I clearly did it wrong :P

You can't pick liquid and place into inventory. Liquids are always transported by pipes.
If you want to transport liquids as items, you have to put them into barrels.
In vanilla game you have only barrels for crude oil.
