It's an old engine. I would guess that the rings are a little worn and some oil is slipping by into the upper cylinder. As long as the car is still running fine, then it shouldn't be a problem.

brad you are 100% correct all that means is he is ready for a rebuild but doesnt mean he has to do it for another 100k
