TheWoWDBSome of the Twilight Captivators do carry the Pyreburn Oil barrels, however your best bet would be to simply fly around the Ruins of Drakgor and look for barrels that are spread around. Not all of the barrels in the area are what you need for the quest, just some. Definitely easier and faster than killing the Captivators with a low drop rate.

I liked his line,
What would a Golbin Death Knight say to LK at his starting zone xD
You can pick these up while killing the required mobs for the concurrent quest, Mercy for the Bound. They're all over the place, and some of the mobs nearby that might aggro anyway will drop the Pyreburn Oil.

Description
I'm new to this gig. Very new. But ya know what? That gives me perspective! These shaman buddies of mine have come upon somethin' great, but they're too single minded! They lean on the elements and they forget to make use of the common materials all around them. In the ruins to the south, I saw those Twilight goons tote in barrels of flammable oil! They used it when they razed the town. I say we use it when we raze them.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Unbroken
We are preparing a ritual that may be of use in destroying Iso'rath, the old god bred abomination that the Twilight's Hammer have brought up from the depths. We are delayed though, for one of our strongest was captured during an assault on their encampment.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Mercy for the Bound
It goes without saying that I had no desire to stay here, but there were materials we needed for the ritual... I delayed to secure them, and that is what lead to my capture. I will return to the circle, but I would be indebted to you if you would finish what I could not.
