New owner ahsa few questions on 88 9000 Turbo

Hi Everyone
I recently got an 88 9000 turbo. I like it a lot and also been reading
Quasimotor's site. It is very helpful.
My questions are
1) The trip computer display screen below the speedometer never come on. I check all the fuses and they are all ok. What is wrong with the display screen? Is it the bulbs? Or I will need to replace the whole instrument cluster?
2)The engine is making a clicking sound coming from the belt area next to the valve cover( timing chain??? ). Is this normal?
3) Sometimes the car will NOT start. The starter just simply no turning, you will hear click. It has brand new interstate battrey. Is it from the starter solenoid? Is the the sign that the starter is detting ready to go bad? But once I get the starter going, the engine will start.
4) There is this oil puddle by the front passenger side tire area. Is this from oil pumpside of the crankshaft seal? Is this hard to replace? or take it to a professional?
Thanks so much!!!
