Very likely that the car still has the original IMS bearing even at 160K miles. Failure rates on the 2.5L engines were fairly low.
I wouldn't trust any sticker - too easily replicated. There should be a paper receipt or it never happened.
Last, get a PPI so you know the general condition and possible repair areas.
