Steven,
Yes the 3208 is a sleeveless motor, but as long as it has been maintained before and you take care of it. It should last a long time. Also, the 3208 has only two rings per piston and it relys on compression to seat the rings tight. If you idle this motor it will use oil. It was made to be run!
So if its in good to great shape and a farmer who had it took care of it (200 hours oil changes, clean air and fuel filters at routine intervals)I wouldn't be scared of it.
