Anointed

I believe the answer is:

oiled

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">anointed</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">('oil' can be a synonym of 'anoint')</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for oiled that I've seen before include "wasted" , "running smoothly?" , "greasy" , "get drunk" , "protected from rust?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun and The Guardian.
