Yes any engine from a Grand Marquis, Crown Victoria, Town Car, or 2 valve Mustang will fit. PCM will work fine. There may be a bit of coercing some parts. Is your intake manifold plastic? If so and the intake elbow (plenum) is pointed to the driver side and not the front of the car, you will be good to go. I forget the cut off year of the less friendly front-pointing intake manifold/plenum which makes things a tad more difficult. You will have to use your original fuel injectors and a few other parts if the engine doesn't come with it. There's a few gotcha's with the ECT sensors which may need a slight modification on newer model intake manifolds but nothing that's difficult.
And depending on the size of the vacuum leak, yes it may affect oil burning. Time will tell.

Thanks buddy, I'll check the fuses I was tired yesterday and I that's why I didn't check them already. Is the set of wires running on top of the engine right below the resonator box also related to the EATC system? I was careful not to break anything but I'll tamper them to see if anything changes.
About the engine, mine has aluminum intake and the elbow faces forward.
Hopefully that vacuum thing is gone for sure
Best regards,
Oscar.
EDIT: Somebody told me to turn the headlights on and then off to see if the EATC screen comes on and IT DOES but as soon as I turn headlights off it will turn back off.
