I have been a tech inspector for a few years, not so much last season because of other things tying my time up but I'm still real familiar with the tech sheet. If your car has split cv boots and there is grease slinging under your car, yes, you will need to fix that. But if I see only wetness on the bottom side of your motor and when I clean it off and the wetness does not return while the car is on the lift, I'm not going to give you a hard time. I'll probably just tell you to make sure you have an extra qt or two of oil in your track box. The nice thing about the checklist is that it gives everyone a "guide" in which to follow to make sure they have a problem free fun filled weekend. 95% of 80s era 911s are wet underneath to one degree or another. Ideally, yes there should be no leaks at all but the checklist allows for inspector discretion.
