My friends have been arguing for the past 20 minutes on what would be considered the “blood” of the car. Friend A is saying the oil, Friend B is saying the gas. Who wins this debate?

I’d say oil is like blood while gas is like food.
Neither’s either ofc (any analogy breaks down at some point), but gasoline gets physically ingested, chemically digested to harvest some energy, and then what remains after digestion is ejected as waste. That sounds somewhat similar to we do with food, IMO.
Oil remains permanently in the “body,” forever circulated by a pump without ever leaving (and if it does leave, then a little bit of loss is survivable, but a lot can be fatal), which sounds a lot like blood IMO.
Oil isn’t really circulating anything like blood does (maybe heat, with heat exchangers being like lungs, but that’s a stretch IMO), but that’s about all I’ve got.
IMO, oil=blood and gasoline = food.
