Talked to the PO and he said he had changed filter and oil, i asked how. He did it without engine running and just added oil until it dribbled out.
I think thats where the missing oil came from.

Dont have any areas under the car that are wet of oil or something.

But it cant hurt to check it, thanks for the tip!
Soon time to double check level in the gearbox too.
