Depends on the Porsche you are referring too.
Assuming we are only talking about 911s there is a different method depending on if the car is air cooled, early water cooled, or late water cooled.
Air cooled 911s (including 964 and 993) should have the oil warmed to operating temperature before checking the oil level. Park the car on a level service and with the engine runningcheck the level after the engine has been at idle for at least 30 seconds to allow the oil level to stabilize.
On the early water cooled 911s (type 996) oil level is checked with the engine warm but it is not checked with the engine running. The exception is the 996TT which is checked via the computer with the on dash display.
The later water cooled 911s (type 997) are checked via the computer using the on dash display.
