Some would recommend a CATCH CAN to catch air-born oil being recirculated back in over the input valves.
I fitted one when we first go the car. It collects a LITTLE amount of oil but probably not enough to make any difference to contribute to contaminating the back of the valves with carbon etc
For what it will cost you to get a "TECH" to look at your engine, you can buy your own Borescope camera (ie at Harbor Freight), and do your own as many times and as often as you want, while maintaining Photographic records. Most Borecope Cameras (ie harbor Freight) take SD cards, where you can record both Pictures and Video.
You can also get cheaper USB Borescope cameras for your Smartphone.
Also, once you have have of these Camera, you will find many other uses for it, although I would strongly advise against "Home Do-it-Youself Colonoscopy
(Seriously, don't even consider that !!! )
