whem my engines had 1200 hrs they leaked and used oil around
1qt every 4 hrs.my suggestion is that it does not matter much except for the belly mess (which becomes a real pain cleaning).
the engines are on thier last leg as far as time is concerned. you will burn up 200 hrs real fast anyway and it will be time for overhauls. high time engines are a negative for pricing, look at the whole picture airframe, avonics, interior, paint and the accessories (controllers turbos, wastegates, hoses, props
ect as these can add up to the ammmmount of an engine oh).
oil leaks and hight time engines doesn't mean you arn't looking at a sound a/c
