HELP! Slight Oil Leak. 850 1996

Hi,

I looked at a 1996 850 turbo today with 65K miles. Price is $13K. The car ran great except I crawled under and found fresh engine oil on the bottom of the engine. I am NOT a Volvo expert so I do not know what problems these cars generally have. The oil is also around the front of the head - maybe coming from the intake gasket. Any ideas what this could be? Is the price fair? How long do the turbos generally last? Your feedback is appreciated.
