1978 Vw Bus/Vanagon Oil Leak?

I am looking at a 1978 Vw Bus/Vanagon on ebay and I found one close by and the only thing wrong with it is, it has an oil leak on the engine. I already asked the seller and he/she said it would be able to be fixed just by replacing a gasket. But since I am not vastly familiar with these vehicles I was wondering wut kind of gasket I would be needing... heres the link http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180416273787&viewitem=&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWAX%3AIT Just kinda respond fast..only has a few days left.... just kinda wanna know if it'd be worth the purchase or if the damage looks too extensive.... thanks

Buy it, then buy The Idiots Guide to Complete VW Repair. It is the best service manual EVER. It will take you step by step through almost every problem a VW can have.

ALL air cooled VW engines leak out of the rear main seal, valve covers or push rod tubes. I wouldn't worry about an oil leak, just check the oil every time you put gas in it.
