I'm not sure about the OL object meaning,but I can imagine that you get some reference integrity issues when trying to delete that part.

The cause is that this part ID is is referenced to other Objects , links ,and if delete that part we will end with orphan links references pointing to an ID that don't exist .

 to find out where this part is referenced,we can run the attached script with the part Object Reference  ,this can be found by accessing the part from the history table :

Once an object has been checked into Windchill, it is very hard to delete them.

If it is a standalone part, you should be able to delete it.

If it is used in a drawing, you need to delete the drawing with the part.

If it is in an assembly, you need to delete the latest iteration of the assembly (and any drawings) until you get that object removed from the assembly structure which will allow you to delete it.

Good luck!
