It should be raised a 1/4"
There is a grommet on there where the wires run,You didn't state a color of ooze, but is it the same colour as the grommet ?
Replace that fuse & test it the same way.

If you have 0 volts to the fuse panel, I would inspect all of the fusible links. Sounds like maybe more than 1 is bad. It also sounds like the module has gotten really hot and is probably toast.

Yeah thats the one Im talking about the one connected to the starter relay is the one that I fixed and I can't seem to find any others.
Also its not really fixed just kinda twisted together for the time being untill I get a chance to solder and wrap it .

One quick question is it a bad thing that all that wax from th Ignition module oozed all over my fender. Well I mean could this be a tell tell sign that the module is bad.

I'm pretty sure the answer is yes.I can't see it being Good 
You need to get some air flowing under it.
Pickup an extra one in case of a breakdown.
Try & Buy a Motorcraft module as they come with shoes on them to raise them off the fender.

Update !!!!!
Well I finally got it running again the ignition module was toasted in it the guy at the parts counter wouldn't even test it it was in such bad shape. He took one look at it and said "I can tell you right now that module is fried." I should have known though pratically all of the wax was out of it. So I got a new one (17.99) at autozone .
I was so happy when it first cranked it over I revved the engine kinda long and high so I know my neighbors aren't real chipper but its been a while since I heard that rumble.
Thanks everyone for all of your help now I just gotta track down this interior light problem.
