I'm running stock raspberry PI OS on a Pi3+ and trying to figure out how to remove the old OSS audio driver.
As a background, I'm using an updated version of syncterm to BBS and it only seems to detect OSS as an audio output option. I'd like very much to remove OSS if possible.

Do you really need to?
I simply install alsa and pulse audio to get decent audio I think pulse audio runs over OSS. Not sure. Stuff always 'just worked' for me so I never dug deeper
I'm surprized that OSS is enabled on a stock PiOS. You may have a the file
/etc/modprobe.d/oss-compat.conf
present, or a similar name. Move that file to /etc/modprobe.d/oss-compat.conf.off and reboot.
What version of "stock raspberry PI OS" contains that installed?
Can you not
sudo apt purge oss-*

The only one I found that I run headless and only recently started streaming music with mplayer and online radio sources. My syncterm install shows oss as the driver installed - that's all I know.
I tried that.
Thank you I will try that and inform.
There's an empty file in there raspi-blacklist.conf and nothing else. Could it be elsewhere?
