Unrefined oil ("crude") is a mixture of hydrocarbons (HC) which vary by source. (Tappas vs Middle East vsPennsylvaniavs Texas vs .....).
You can get light, sweet crude which has almost no "oil" in it (all petrol/diesel type HC) or you can get superheavy crudes which are full of sulphur (VenezuelanCrude that's basically just bitumen tar).
Most motor oils are blends of refined base oils from 100 Saybolt Universal Seconds (SUS) to 850 SUS - blended in such a way as to give a particular end viscosity - and then charged with additives to manage corrosion, oxidation, etc. Crudes can range from 40 SUS to 40000 SUS depending on type.

What is the difference between crude oil and motor oil?
Crude oil is the oil from the well. Motor oil has been processed. The motor oil must have certain properties, such as viscosity and density, and it can not contain any contaminants, such as sulfur. Crude oil is unrefined oil, and it has a wide range of viscosities and densities, and may contain contaminants.
What does motor oil weigh?
