Default .2 cayman s shopping, what to look for in terms of maintenance

helping a friend shop for a cayman S 987.2 manual
aside from the standard stuff a PPI or general inspection would catch for all cars

I'm looking for the maintenance nightmares that would necessitate removing the engine to maintain:
i.e. expansion tank on a gt3 or AOS on a .1 cayman

Just do a PPI before purchase. The 9A1 motor doesn't have any of the issues coming from the M96/M97 motors.

Actually I have learned my lesson with PPIs take it with a grain of salt

That's why I'm asking about any gotchas
