Broker concern

Hi, I just brought a stock boat from a broker. Upon viewing the engine and bilges were very clean. You could eat your dinner off the bilges. The surveyor did spot a small sweep of oil from the engine but it was barely visible at the time - so I agreed it wasn’t an issue. But upon return from our first trip after completion, oil was dripping down the side of the engine into the bilges, messing up all the prep work done by the broker and causing me great concern. The broker has reinspected the engine and said there is nothing they can do, the oil leak is what they would expect from a late 80s BMC. What are my rights in this situation and what should I do next?
If they owned the boat you will have warranty, if they were acting as brokers then there is no warranty.
