Orochimaru needs preparation for his Edo Tensei. There is no guarantee he would get the time to find the blood and corpse necessary for the ritual and do that in time especially when facing an opponent as fast as Minato. Even if smh he uses Edo Tensei, it could turn to be a downfall for him more than anything else if Minato manages to put a contract seal on him which would make the Edos break free from Orochimaru's control and in this case, it can be argued that they could decide to help Minato instead noticing the dangerosity of Orochimaru's intents or because they simply don't like to be manipulated by someone
THANK YOU ppl seem to forget that edo tensai requires prep time.
