Water penetration? Broken chimney stucco at gutter
I am planning to buy a house in rainy Vancouver, BC, but found a potential problem.
The chimney stucco at the end of the gutter is broken, revealing the wood beneath:
The metal roof flashing appears to lead water into the wood beneath the stucco:
Water appears to have damaged the stucco immediately under the gutter:
How should this be repaired? What kind of cost would I be looking at?
Thank you!
P.S. Subject removal date is tomorrow...

The gutter has to be moved to make enough room to remove the loose stucco & patch what's needed. It's not that big of a job but my questions would be:
Where did the water go & did it do any other damage?
