Measuring what you drained out is only accurate if it was full to being with. The oil that's left in the engine isn't part of the rated oil capacity, that oil [aside from the small bit in the pan] is ...

Valve cover gasket replacement - 6G Celicas Forums

Replacing the gasket [should] solve your leak, but it won't fix the oil in the plug holes.
For that you need to reseal [or possibly replace] the spark plug tubes, which is a PITA.

You have a 3SGTE, don't you?
How are you getting around it?
You would actually have to be a 95 to avoid the scanner.

96^ won't pass, you need OBDII, they hook the tester up to you car.
I'm guessing you have a 95, so you're fine there.

It's unlikely incorrect mechanical timing is going to do much damage to the 5S, it's just going to sound and run scary.

Flashing means the compressor isn't running, so it's not going to blow cold air.

Low fluid can cause a squealing noise, though usually it will groan and not squeal.
A loose or worn/glazed belt will squeal.

Jack your car up and see if you can wiggle that wheel.
Make sure you lock the steering first [take key out and turn wheel until it "clicks"].
If there's no wiggle it's not going to cause the rotor to ...

You need a 92 or newer 5SFE.
Swap everything from the old engine, including the intake manifold and valve cover.
If you get a Camry engine they have balance shafts and no distributor after 96.

You can buy an oil pan gasket, but the FIPG [or regular black Permatex silicone] will seal better if done right.

Squeaking isn't going to be caused by bad CV joints most likely.
It's probably either your brakes or something scraping the rotor.
Have you already looked at your brakes?
