This is where I have mine mounted on my 408. It's not in an f body but it's a custom bracket. Bob from AEICNC makes custom brackets. He might have one for you. Does the f body ac compressor mount on the bottom driver side?

You will have a "perceived" loss of oil pressure when you have a lower pressure in your crankcase because the gauge is calibrated to read 0 at atmospheric pressure. Your gauge is starting below atmospheric pressure. It will read lower by about 1 PSI for every 2" HG of vacuum, but in reality, it will be pumping the same amount at the same pressure differential.

I thought the Smog Pumps pushed air to introduce fresh air in the Exhaust
Gasses to cool something down for better Emissions? Or something like that.
Can you reverse something to make it pull a Vacuum or am I just completely
wrong, and it is a Vacuum Pump?

The smog pump injected air in to the exhaust manifold to further oxidize any unburned hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide. It would make a lousy vacuum pump.
