Just lmfao lmao roflmao what a game

Bought this shitbox for next to nothing. The car has 320k KM on the dash and has quite decent spec. I took it to get faults etc scanned and it only shows failed MAF (which I'm keeping unplugged for now), the car drives surprisingly well, doesn't smoke, auto gearbox shifts fine etc. However, the engine bay has seen some better days. It looks like it has NEVER been cleaned whatsoever, and there is quite a bit of oil/diesel grime accumulation pretty much everywhere ( i tried to capture it as best as i can, if someone has any pointers or can see some potential dangers that'd be appreciated as I'm clueless about engines). The guy who scanned the car for faults suggested I get the engine washed/cleaned before diving into it deeper, but the most concerning part is exposed wires in certain places (highlighted on the video), and overall I'm certain that if I power wash that thing is never starting again lol. Any suggestions/help what steps to take next would be appreciated

Hi guys, I honestly don't have much knowledge about engines, but a friend just bought E90 with M47, and the previous owner claims the power steering reservoir (or pump itself, not 100% sure) had basically broken and spilled quite a bit of power steering liquid all over. He ''got it fixed'', but the engine bay is quite dirty, oily around the bottom as well as can be seen in pics, but the car was dirt cheap and it seems to run fine, pulleys aren't wobbling/squeaking at all, but the power steering belt (If i understand correctly, it's entirely separate from the main belt system) seems to be wanting to jump off from right side crankshaft pulley. Could it simply be that it caught some oil/liquid and slid off slightly? And also, Is the car drivable at all at low speeds to workshop or should it be towed?

This is a Cube Aim Race 2017, today my foot slipped off the pedal and i ended up twisting the handlebar/crashing the bike. the wheel and fork itself seem fine and straight, but the handlebar/stem seem off to the right by 5-10mm. Tried the good old method of standing over the front wheel, squeezing with my legs and pulling the handlebars but it won’t move at all. Is that normal? I assume I need to unscrew the stem itself and try to adjust then?
