You should be able to see a wash mark (clean spot washed by oil leak) somewhere if the leak is bad enough then. I would be sus to a hydraulic line rubbed through - be it steel or flex. If it leaks quick it's on the pressure side and slower on the return - nothing you don't know already, but it allows you to trace it from the pump.

I am assuming you are talking about the level on the dipstick on the floor in front of the operator seat.

I kinda only mentioned it, cuz you said you were thinking of buying it. Make sure it hasn't been run whilst dry. You could get all sorts of problems in the future if it has. A leak, even a bad one isn't so bad as long as it's well fed.
It could be a bargain - just a broken line mount which has caused the line to rub through or it could be big $$$. Think with your head not your heart, as another one ( a better one?) will always be around the corner.
