That does not look like a RC. Any chance of an upclose pic?

The head gaskets on the 111 engine leak oil.

Sorry, thats the only pic Ive got, I put a deposit on it today as a short term runaround. No idea if its serious problem

Looks like a leak from the camshaft adjuster. I have a feeling there's a large O ring in there somewhere. çàï÷àñòè Mercedes: êîäû çàï÷àñòåé ìåðñåäåñ

Look to the left of that. Old oil everywhere.

Not sure Olly I am thinking a bit of "oil migration".
