Much of the damage occured well out to sea, the oil slicks were there but were usually broken up before they reached land. It wasn't uncommon though for convoys and warships to encounter large slicks though.
A lot of wreckage, bodies and I would imagine, Oil was washed up on the Western Irish coast. Its a fair bet some of the Irish history websites will have details on that.
