Stop the engine and check the engine oil level is within the level range indicated on the oil dipstick.

I'm just curious cuz it is an old engine and I want to make sure that oil level is proper

As long as it is above the minimum line, then leave it alone. Most people only think that low oil causes problems, but overfilling causes problems too. Just keep an eye on it, checking it whenever you have time.

Give the motor time to let all of the oil return to the pan before checking and see if it is at the proper level. Give it 5 minutes, a lot of oil is in the head and has to get back to the pan.
