I was thinking the other day that the new version of DF has Sperm Whales, but there's no spermaceti oil yielded when you butcher them.  Not that DF has any provision for liquids from butchering animals, although I suppose you could define it as a Glob like fat.  And I'm not sure what Dwarves would do with it at the moment.

For that matter, there should be a slight chance of getting ambergris from butchering a sperm whale, but I don't think dwarves would have the first idea what to do with it.

Any intelligent fool can make things bigger and more complex... It takes a touch of genius --- and a lot of courage to move in the opposite direction.

Most likely? Either try to eat it or throw it at elves.
