oil leaks -- cause for concern?
Below is an engine pic from a car I'm considering.
This will be my first 911 but I understand they tend to leak. The car in question is an SC with higher mileage and original head studs. Any worrying signs in the picture below?

Leak-wise, that looks to be from the oil return tubes--very common and very easy fix if that's what it is.

Thanks. I'm definitely not going to skip the PPI but I figured I'd save some time if something was obviously wrong. Thanks again.
