I am not too familiar with Tahini oil, I just know it is made of seasme seeds.
If I am trying to drop my BF% would it make a difference if I used Olive Oil vs. Tahini Oil?
Also, how healthy is hummus? I make a can, and it lasts me 4-5 days, and I never even eat it all, but it's soo good with Pita and other Veggies dipped into it.

Using pure tahini definitely gives it a different texture and flavor but it's not a requirement. There are tons of hummus recipes out there. I have personally never used tahini oil and idk where you would even buy it, so I can't comment on that.

Almost everything--all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure--these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.

Tahini is a paste, it definitely helps to thicken the ground chickpeas. I've also made hummus with peas and with edamame. I left out the tahini both times...and they were a good substitute!
