Check if it's had regular oil changes.
If only changed every 10,000 then that's not enough.
Also check if it starts ok from cold, and again from hot without continual cranking.
Can spray oil from EGR valve, they all do this, and it looks messy but shouldn't be excessive needs cleaning up on a regular basis.
