I'm at a loss here :-(

Check the wires that go to the Idle air valve. Mine had a break in one of the purple wires going to it. Had all of the same symptoms yours had, right down to the fuel smell. The problem was intermittent at first, but finally came back and would not go away. Fixing the wire fixed the problem. Runs great now with 235,000 mi on it.

...while sitting at a light i noticed my RPM's drop significantly and the car was about to die just before it picked back up again and seemed to run fine but there was a definite "fuel" smell coming from the exhaust...
My first thought was it acted like it wasn't getting any fuel. OH...cylinder 3 has a bit of oil in it which I read is

What I quoted, is exactly what my neon is doing. It's not doing the other issues your neon is doing, so what is the exact fix for the above quoted issues?
