オールナイト is the fuller, slightly more formal source form, while オール is its clipped, more casual everyday abbreviation for the same idea of staying up all night.
櫂かい
オール is a loanword for a Western-style rowing oar, while 櫂 is the native Japanese term for a paddle or oar used more broadly, including in traditional boats.
櫓ろ
オール refers to a Western-style oar typically used in pairs and pulled with both hands, whereas 櫓 is a single traditional Japanese sculling oar attached at the stern.

パドル
パドル is a paddle held freely without a fixed pivot, while オール is an oar that pivots in an oarlock, so the two are often confused despite being different rowing tools.
