I have replaced all plugs, wires, cap and rotor.

These spark plugs could be from 2002.
These appear to have burned evenly, hence assuming the compression is within range. But I will check once I have the compression tool. What is a good make for compression tool?

The oil at REAR intake cam have leaked for more than 3 years. The cap appears deformed. The wires were dated 02 50, which would likely make the rotor 10 years old. Do such condition of cap make the ECU adjust for something?
