Hmm, I will try my best, but I just loaned it to a friend in exchange for borrowing Saiyuki 1-3.
I counted the characters violence when playing around as fighting. It's kinda graphic at times for example: Ban-chan has a "snake bite" fist that strikes with high pressure. When they are playing around ban-chan "bites" Ginji's head and removes half of the hair. The next scene though they are both fine.
Also, almost all of their quests result in a big battle. During these, blood is everywhere. Oh and spoiler:
[spoiler= sick ] ban-chan uses his evil eye on a mean looking dog. Evil eye makes people and animals see a hallucination for 60 seconds. He makes the dog see Ginji as a girl, and the dog sodomizes ginji. Very sick. This occurs in the first manga.... yeah, it's not funny at all.
Also, hevn-chan is a girl with very big breasts, that are barely kept in by the lack of clothes she wears. Ban-chan has an absurd habit of poking up behind her and groping them.. . . constantly.
Sorry, I am not helping much on the violence end of things. Violence bothers me very little so I hardly notice it. Sexual content on the other hand bothers me lots. . .
During one of the fights both ginji and ban get shot in the head. Then the 12+ bad guys turn the guns on each other and it is a veritable blood bath. This whole sequence lasts quite a few pages too.
Btw, don't rate the anime based on the manga. I have seen a couple eps and it is nothing like the manga. it is very clean, except for the fighting. [/spoiler]
Needless to say, it is OT for very, very good reasons.

Yes, I find Saiyuki to be good too! Umm, but not for the bishies. . .
