I wouldn't worry about the sludge thing, just check out the engine and go for a low mileage if possible. Even better if it's at a junk yard pull the front valve cover before pulling the motor. There's been at least 10 pre VVT-i 1MZ-FE cars in my immediate family and none of them had a problem. Then again we also take care of our cars. By pre drive by wire we mean there's a cable between the accelerator pedal and the throttle body. Where as on drive by wire it's all electronic.
