Thank you so much for the suggestion.

Vegan chocolate, yes. As for the butter, I’d substitute clarified butter (you heat it and remove the milk solids) or olive oil. Here’s an article about clarifying butter. https://food52.com/blog/5871-how-to-make-clarified-butter-and-ghee

how much olive oil would you suggest?

I would use olive oil, but I'd use a recipe for a similar cake, one that calls for olive oil - like this one, an oft-requested family favorite, which I can assure you is excellent: https://www.nigella.com/recipes/chocolate-olive-oil-cake ;o)
