Sounds like the A/C compressor clutch to me, not sure though. What's the plastic water bottle down by the oil filter?

Won't stop doing this. Will drive normal for an hour it so then I hear a noise like alot of air is being released and my oil pressure drops and my engine stutters I guess for a lack of a better word. I think I smell oil I could just be paranoid. I pull over and it makes those noises more then everything is fine again for another hour. Wdf.

Sure doesn't sound good. If it was the A/C clutch, I couldn't see how that would be related to the oil pressure drop. But, for kicks, maybe pull the A/C relay and see what happens.
