To make sure people understand: You have to exit the mine. Then once outside, you turn right. There's a second entrance that leads directly to him.

Well Hansel did punch Twilight-Lord Arkkus over the side but I did not get credit for the kill, as caster I was at max range and engaged Maltorius.
After waiting for respawns I did kill them both and got credit for the kill this time.
So stay close to Hansel when he engages Arkkus
Or, just continue across the bridge, turn right outside, turn right into lower tunnel entrance, and turn right again inside onto the path Oilfist is on.

What to do
Description
Hansel and I came here on a secret mission: kill Overseer Maltorius. While our main goal still remains the same - defeating Archduke Calcinder - it can't hurt to take out the infamous overseer of the Slag Pit while we're here. Problem is, Hansel was only prepared to fight one dwarf, but it looks like Maltorius has a visitor... an emissary from the Twilight's Hammer! Speak with Hansel and help him out. Then proceed down this corridor and along the balcony outside to find Overseer Oilfist.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Kill 'em With Sleep Deprivation
It's a little known fact that dwarves, particularly of the Dark Iron variety, need rest! Lots of rest! Now I ask you; How can they sleep without pillows? Exactly, <name>, they can't. This is why you must steal their pillows. Once you've finished your cushion-thievery, talk with Taskmaster Scrange.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- From Whence He Came
Archduke Calcinder squirms in the back of this very cavern. We are close to killing him... but that is not what we are going to do. Slaying Calcinder here means nothing. His acolytes can easily revive him. Instead, we are going to banish him.
