Some pulleys have rubber dampiners that break free and the only recourse is to replace that pulley. Or your keyway is shot and then you may have other problems.

not enough info provided. your "wobble" may be a misfire, not a loose crankshaft. Watch your crank pulley at the bottom of the motor if you think its coming loose. knocking sounds arent good in engines...internal damage results soon after but again, a knocking in your case may be that its ignition timing is too far advanced. As for the oil leak...how can we judge when we cant even see it? Whether its safe to drive...judging on the question, i would very soon have someone look at it. Cars cant be properly diagnosed over the internet and too many people dont understand that.
