You said when you popped the lid off your brake booster- Did you mean the master cylinder cause the booster don't have a lid that I know of. I'd purge the MC and the rest of the system and replace with brake fluid and bleed the system and see if you have brakes. If you have ruined any seals then you may have to replace the parts as Cdowns stated. Are you positive it's engine oil because brake fluid gets dark in the MC when it gets old but it still smells like brake fluid. You may just have a bad MC.
