I believe that is mineral oil, it's non-conductive. All components are exposed and there is no special treatment or coating on any of the parts.
You can do this yourself if you want to be advantageous, several gallons of the oil in a fish tank and dunk in the assembled motherboard and you have basically the same thing.
And as far as I know, it doesn't cool any better than a very good heatsink and fan from thermaltake or other companies.

Here are some guys who tried it.
