Here are the Clift Notes on oil tanks. Since it is post 1984, the owner at the time any leak is detected is responsible for clean up. It does not matter when the leak started. You can be talking 10's of thousands of dollars in clean up. I know about this because this happened to me 3 years ago.
I can not advise you more strongly than to say do not buy without a soil test as part of inspection. You simply don't want the EPA poking around and have to disclose that when you want to go sell.
