When you've got the cowling open to check the oil, have a good look at the engine. Does it all look right? Are their any cracks on the exhaust? Any around the top of the plugs? Any oil leaks? Any lose or damaged cables or hoses? and so on...

Find an instructor with an interest in aero engines to show you what to look for. I find it all pretty fascinating...
