I think your roux broke down releasing both the oil and liquid that had been incorporated with the cooked flour. It happens to me sometimes, and I don't understand why...maybe too hot or not hot enough making the roux. Simmering and stirring during reheating helps. Corn starch will thicken but not improve the excess oil.
