Peanut oil is mainly derived from peanuts. Peanuts are not actually a part of the nut family but many people are allergic to them. Therefore, if you are allergic to peanuts, you should not use the oil.

Regular peanut oil contains little to no peanut protein. Varieties which are cold pressed, expelled, or extruded however, are different and can present danger for those with peanut Allergies.

Does peanut butter contain protein?

No, peanut butter is not a protein, but it is made of proteins (and other types of molecules). The question is somewhat like asking whether a car is a tire. Cars and tires aren't equivalent, just like peanut butter and protein aren't equivalent; cars have tires, just like peanut butter has protein. Peanut butter is made by mashing up peanuts, and peanuts are predominantly made of protein, fats, carbohydrates, and water. Cars are made by, well, you get the point... All that said, if you are asking whether peanut butter contains lots of protein, then that's another matter altogether. To answer that question accurately, you'd have to specify what qualifies as "lots of protein". But the general consensus is that peanuts (and therefore peanut butter) have a reasonably high amount of protein in them. A similar question would be whether peanut butter is a good source of protein. The answer might be of particular value to vegetarians and the like, whose predominant source of protein is from non-meat food items. While peanut butter arguably contains a relatively high amount of protein, some might consider it a poor protein source. Some argue that to consume enough peanut butter to satisfy one's recommended protein intake would require the consumption of a large amount of fat (since in addition to containing lots of protein, peanuts also contain lots of fat). Like most foods, moderation is key.
