Default Carfax question - Engine cleaned normal?

Hello all,
I'm looking at a C6Z06 locally and the Carfax report shows "Engine cleaned Vehicle washed/detailed". I haven't looked at many Carfaxes but it just seemed like an odd thing to pop up on a Carfax report. Am I overthinking? Here's some pics for looking. Thanks!

Overthinking. Is normal and part of a detail job. Are the service records available?

I'd be looking at that BMW Z8 parked next to it...but I know the pricing is vastly different between the two vehicles.

Not sure on the service record yet, I haven't reached out yet. Just doing some initial homework before doing so.

I'd love to have one of those Z8's parked beside my C6Z. Thats my problem though...I like too many cars.
