Default techies please help

okay, my car has been running like poo for a while now.
last week i checked if i was getting any new codes, cus i had a feeling i was. what do you know, 3 of them, 45/46/71 and 90 which i 've had since the swap was done, no biggie. the new ones are lean/rich codes, but i cant figure out why i'd be leaning/richining? checked the plugs and they were burnt to poo poo. changed them and the car ran fine, strong again for a few days. today on the highway i noticed it wasnt pulling as hard when i pressed the throttle a bit. so i checked the codes again and i;m getting 45 again. pulled the pluggs. all are clean cept #4 it looks old a crusty and the contact is shorter then the rest. i put a light to the #4 cylinder and the piston head is wet and the others are dry? what is this? oil/fuel? and why?

fuel pump may be toated, also bad timing spark as you get the 71 general missfire code, should light up for all cylinders, prob unburnt fuel. also check spark wires and plugs
