I am looking at purchasing a 2014 C-Class. I took it for my own independent pre-purchase inspection and my mechanic came back saying that there was oil leaking out of "front of cylinder heads - both banks"

I took this info back to the lot and showed them photos my mechanic supplied me with, the lot agreed to take the car into a MB dealership for a specialized look into this. The MB dealership came back saying they couldn't find any leaks or issues. I am concerned the lot just wiped down the oil before taking it in -- is this something MB would miss? They knew they were looking for this specific issue on their servicing. MB said the car is clean and looks good on all angles.

Any insight helps. If clarification is needed I am more than happy to provide. Thankyou!!
