1993 BMW 325 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic 178k miles

i just bought the car from a private owner, he said he maintained it ever since he has gotten it, i noticed that it has a small oil leak i believe, i figured that since it is a 1993 that is normal, what should i do?

Well, what do you want to do? If you fix the leak, you're going to need to pinpoint it first. Where is it leaking from?
