Based on your description, the large organ above and to the left of the stomach that is indicated by the arrow is likely the **liver**. The liver is an exocrine gland and plays crucial roles in digestion and metabolism, including the production of bile. If this aligns with your context, then the answer is the liver.

Here are the structures of the exocrine system described based on your prompts:
1. **Secrete mucus that protects organs**: **Mucous glands** (found in various locations, including the respiratory and digestive tracts).
2. **Secretes enzymes that aid in digestion**: **Pancreas** (specifically, the exocrine portion of the pancreas secretes digestive enzymes).
3. **Secrete tears**: **Lacrimal glands** (responsible for producing tears).
4. **Keep the skin hydrated and soft**: **Sebaceous glands** (which secrete sebum to lubricate and protect the skin).

Sure! Based on your requirements:
1. **Secrete mucus that protects organs**: **Goblet cells** (these are specialized epithelial cells found in various mucous membranes that secrete mucus).
4. **Keep the skin hydrated and soft**: **Oil glands** (specifically, sebaceous glands are often referred to as oil glands, which secrete sebum to keep the skin moisturized).
So, the chosen answers would be:
1. Goblet cells
4. Oil glands
