as long as your check engine light doesnt come on ( no readiness code problems ) then you're fine I believe. there is no visual inspection technically but I would reccomend taking it somewhere that A) you know a mechanic or B) you think they aren't the **** type

I know I would pass it as long as the leak isnt too bad and the check engine light isnt on.

yeah the only problem you might have is if the ses light goes on &/or if the readiness tests dont complete.
