Sorry. I assumed too much. Obviously most people won't know what a DTC is.

The value in a DTC is that you can pull the stored code to see, for example, oil pressure warnings that were issued last week.

If the car you are looking at reveals the DTC but appears to be full of oil anyway, it likely was only properly filled recently, so you can assume engine damage to only show itself after you drive off 8n the car.
