Oil pump issues are fairly common on DSM's for different reasons. Depending on where the car is, you should probably take it to us (QPR) or Elite and have them look at it before you buy it. If that isn't possible, find out as much info on what symptoms it has that the guy believes it is an oil pump issue and post it here.

It would be smart anyway before buying a DSM to have a shop do a leakdown and compression test as well as check crank end play before you buy one. You can save a lot of money in the long run by spending a very little bit up front.
