First off, Welcome! Second, post pics. Third, use search function for alot of the questions.
Lastly, get ready for lots of late nights on the forums, wasting time at work on the forums, and spending lots of $$$.

Welcome and post pics! I must sound like the broken record here.

For your break-in period...drive the first 500-1000 miles easily. Try to vary your rpm and speed (don't use cruise control)...but don't rev up the car to redline any chance you get. Do these few simple steps and you will have an engine that wont leak out oil at the valve covers when the vehicle ages.
