You could pull the oil pan off there, that would be the easiest way.

have him separate the head and bottom end. If there is 0 miles, you'll see shiny *** pistons with no black stuff on the dome, thats if he never fired it up. Yes, also take the oil pan off and there should probably writing of some sort, worse comes to worse, have him show you reciepts.
