When it ran out of fuel there may have been damage to the fuel lines. I would suggest getting it looked at by a mechanic to be safe

Any time ANY vehicle leaks at that weep hole, it's because the seal in the water pump has gone bad. All water pumps have this same weep hole in the same position to let you know the seal is bad.

Could be the gauge or the sending unit in the tank.

Either the engine oil pump is worn, or the engine oil filter is clogged.
