I"d want to check oil pressure with a mechanical guage before buying that tractor. Oil pressure light should go right out and stay out after start-up. IH six-cylinder gas engines are pretty decent if cared for- gotta run low ash oil and keep the valves set. If low-ash oil is not used, they WILL foul plugs and burn valves. 544, 656, 666, and 686 were the best all-around tractors IH ever built. Myself, I would hold out for a diesel, but the D-282 engine in those 656D"s will not torerate any abuse, they"re an outstanding engine when cared for.
