Default Small amount of oil in crankcase

I just picked up a brand new to me 05 ec300. I have receipts showing that it had a complete rebuild in May of last year. New bearings, seals, rod, piston and so on. It has had the head done, Lt power valve cover, and so on. I did my first oil change the other day and pulled the crankcase drain plug by mistake and I got a very small amount of oil out of it. Maybe 5 or 6 drops. Anyone else ever have this happen? My first thought is crank seals but it runs way to good to be burning gear oil AMD the gear oil didn't smell like gas. Help?
