i have this strange noise too on my 02. mine sounds more like a vac leak up near or around the firewall area but it's not a vac leak. sometimes i think maybe it's my tachometer cable or something.

as for the oil you can see through your throttle body, could be your plenum gasket. i have oil down inside of mine but it's not a lot. my truck don't use any oil even after 77,000 on it but not sure how oil got up inside the plenum. mine doesn't really bog down but seems sluggish and i've done the whole complete tune up thing.
