Hi
the oil pressure sounds normal, as far as the leak, have a cooling system pressure test done, it sounds like the rad neck is cracked, as far as the miss unless the ses light is on you probably dont have one, if you did the pcm would pick it up and set a code, but it may need a maint tune up plugs wires, this is very labor intensive though about 6 hrs but anyway have the pressure test done and the oil pressure is fine
take care

A tune up on a 99 vette is very simple anyone with a spark plug socket 3/8 ratchet and a 1" extension can do it. Oil pressure is good.
