I agree, I bought a car with one of those engines in it... it started spitting oil and the last compression reading had all the cyl's at 60-80 Psi. It had 50-60K on it so the guy probably didnt lie when he said he rebuilt it "Carefully" but didnt line bore it. The engine in my Square was line bored and at 95K it isnt anywhere near a flickering oil light even now.
