Just did this with my Herbalist last night and unlike most Seed/Cone collection quests, these CANNOT be tracked with Find Herbs.
(Not that it is difficult to find them.)
Confirmed, good spot.

What to do
Description
The oily seeds from the forest's olemba trees could prove very valuable. I'd like to gather a larger quantity of them, press them for their oil, and then see what I can do with it. Just think, there's a whole forest full of trees out there, producing a lot of seeds that go to waste. I don't care if it turns out to be cooking oil, lamp oil, or weapon oil, I won't let it go to waste! Bring me any of the seeds that you happen to gather from the olemba cones. They're all over the place.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Kill the Shadow Council!
What! Those guys are Shadow Council?! <name>, you have to go back in there and waste them! I want you to take out their leader and as many of their executioners and summoners as you can. After you're done with that, report back to Lieutenant Gravelhammer at the Allerian Stronghold.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- And Now, the Moment of Truth
The oil is finally ready for its first test. It seems heavy enough to serve as a high quality weapon oil. The only way to find out is to have a professional try it out. See Grek over there by the wanted posters? Sure, he's no poet, but the orc knows his way around a weapon!
