Squeaking, vibrating, and AC is nonfunctioning

200k milesRecently replaced timing chain and associated parts.
Replaced valve gasket​.
Brakes are squeaking even though they have plenty of meat left​.
Replaced all of the bushings​ and coilovers​ in the front.

While i changing my clutch I dropped the engine super low catching it with a stray bolt and my crane. That event may have damaged the upper engine mount that was still connected. Otherwise I replaced the transmission mount with poly inserts, replaced the lower with a $10 Chinese look alike (maybe that the problem) and replaced the upper BEFORE DROPPING THE ENGINE with a $50 eBay OEM look alike.

Belt has been squeaking since I put everything back together. Same with the brakes and the AC hasn't worked since the timing chain replacement.

I also have this treat for you. I think the rust is because the system is running to lean. P2096 idk what's wrong with it.

My car's name is clank.



If it's unclear, the resonator is completely disconnected from the rest of the exhaust. They only touch because I placed them together before thinking of taking a picture.

The vibration starts around 63mph and gets worse going up hill while accelerating but is not existent with the foot off the pedal. Reving in neutral doesn't result in any vibration.
