Default truck wont start

Okay so i replaced the distributor cap, rotor, spark plugs and wires and i believe in the process of removing or installing the cap i either unplugged something or disconnected something because i know there is alot of wires and sensors back there (95 dodge ram 1500 w/ the 318) and now the truck will try to start but sounds like it cant get fuel or theres no spark. And i started looking around and i noticed some oil on the backside of the engine near the distributor and egr valve so i looked under and there was oil dripping on the ground and it wasnt just a couple spots it left a damn puddle about the size of a piece of tile. i know its coming from the top backside of the motor but i just need some help finding out what the problem is

Need to find out what you are missing. The cam sensor is back there (under the cap) so you could have unplugged that
