Possible oil leak, general tidbits...
 
Just a couple of things to watch out for...oil filler cap....rubber o-ring on it. Replace, will cure some leaks, and car will idle better.

Replaced your rocker cover gaskets couple years ago? Seeing leaks at the top of the screws ? Try it they will be loose. 25nm torque I believe.

Brake pedal rubber worn? New ones cheap...and easy to put on!

No dash lights? I put up with it for years fiddling around then replaced the switch with good second hand. Bingo...dash lights!! Checked the back of the instrument panel had a couple of globes out as well.
