If you are lost, watch the video in the tab. worked great!
TLDR
Kill the oozes where you do the zap daily
Kill the dogs near the FP (Aliance) the ones missing some health

Yeah, your TL;DR is worth 1000 times more than a video. Thanks.

Do not adjust your TV set...
This quest has a relatively low drop rate. At least for me, it took about ten kills at first to ask myself if I needed to do something other than kill, use something of a quest item, or anything else I might have been missing. Targeting the partial-health robots might take several kills to start getting parts, and then getting the ooze was just as bad. It can be done, just be patient.

Description

I think I can modify one of our existing devices to give us access to Gelbin Mekkatorque without disturbing his life preserving functions. There are some items I will need you to procure. From the nearby vector of the Heaps, you will find scrapbots and scraphounds. These would be a fine source of spare parts for my construction project. The Outflow is home to some particularly slimy friends. From them, you will find excellent ingredients for the heat resistant lubricant we need.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

Someone Who Can HelpLevel 40-90
I believe there is a way to help Mekkatorque, but some may not be a hundred percent on board... The mechagnomes have advanced techniques in biomechanical repair and improvements. If there is even a chance they can help him, we have to try!

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

Voyage to SafetyLevel 40-90
One of our defenders saw the troggs take out the homing copter carrying Mekkatorque's pod. Since we started bringing goods in from Tiragarde, they have been a real thorn in our side. Piston, a very promising young inventor, has a vehicle able to handle this task. Meet his crew down in Bondo's yard.
