You mention a possible oil reside on the MAF.
Are you running a stock air filter or after market???
If it is a year 2000 or newer you have the e-gas throttle so if you disconnect your battery you need to recalibrate your throttle.
Second thing, never touch or wipe any part of a MAF sensor other than the base.
Clean it with a MAF sensor spray cleaner made for MAF sensors. They are very sensitive, touching them or wiping them damages them then they don't function properly.

Its a 1998 base with 124k miles on it. Recently changed the air filter to an brand new one, stock.
The residue was on the outer rim that goes inside its housing. Plastic part only, didn’t touch any of the rest of the piece, was extremely careful with it. Did notice some dust or whatever where the pins are, should probably spray that with some MAF cleaner.
