Lightbulb Seller says engine has valve problems on right side. Buy or don't buy?

Hi guys, I am looking at buying a 2002 Boxster S, and I Called the seller and he said that the engine starts, however there is a problem with the valves on the right side of the engine. He said the car can drive but you need to drive "slow"

Does this point to a IMS failure? Or could this be an easy fix? Like some timing adjustment? What should I do? How can I find out?
