Oil leak and other issues, Fixed PicS

So I'm thinking this is a valve cover leak, but there is some oil on the front (maybe run off)?? Radiator doesn't seem to have oil in it.












Next is the missing A/C I just need the compressor, accumulator and new pigtail, and the 2 hoses, correct?






What is suppose to connect to this pin?


Next issue
When driving and I come to a stop the engine sounds like it starts missing and the volt meter drops, I did a video but could not get it to do the same thingish.

Link fixed. I spent the last 5 hours, changing plugs, wires, filters and fluids, I cleaned the IAC,MAF,intake and TB and now at the stops she doesn't act like shes gonna die.. YAY!!!, now just to get this AC and leaks stopped, and fix what I believe is a ball joint issue (wobbling on highway) and a very detail wash of EVERYTHING. She should be good as new.
 
So ya you probably need to change the valve cover gaskets... don't buy cork crap please!!! Lol
It is possible your oil pan gasket is leaking also but I would start with the valve covers. Then clean all that crap off drive it and see if you can find more leaks before touching the oil pan gasket
And change that torn up radiator cap. Buy a motocraft one off of rock auto and don't get a peace of crap from autozone or it won't hold pressure.

So I have a date to get the valve gaskets swapped, does anyone know what is on the roof or was on the roof? Also, can I swap a 98 v6 4.0 OHV? will it bolt right in? or should I do a 93 block with upgraded pistons and rod, then 98 heads with 422 cams and 24ilb injectors? 73mm MAF and 63mm Throttle body?
