Maybe the thing to do at this point is to do the oil & filter, use the recommended oil and monitor it every thousand miles or so. I'm no mechanic, but it's not hard to imagine the previous owner of the car may not have been less than diligent about oil changes. Let alone using the right stuff. Buying a used car that would be the first thing I did unless I was certain it had been done recently and properly. Once you are certain of the level and quaility of oil in the car you can better assess if you have a real problem. This is assuming you are seeing no oil in the driveway or black smoke from the exhaust.
Good Luck
