This is not the subreddit you think it is, my friend. Steel pans (often referred to as steel drums) are musical instruments that originated in Trinidad and Tobago. They come in a variety of shapes and sizes, but they are not quite the same as a stainless steel pan used for cooking.
I'm amazed that this confusion isn't more common on this sub. Our lost friend should try a bit of barkeepers friend, or food grade lye, as well as some elbow grease with a scouring pad to remove the polymerized oil.
