Table has been very aggressive preflop. Do you flat/shove/fold? Did I make a mistake by open raising? Should I be limping/calling this pre? Limping/3bet? Just for clarification, this is PLO/8.

Seat 1: matrai66 ($1.99 in chips)
Seat 2: Yakss ($2 in chips)
Seat 3: Frenbar ($3.50 in chips)
Seat 4: FRUITMAN25 ($2.27 in chips)
Seat 5: jordanbillie ($4.47 in chips)
Seat 10: *WAVE* ($2.40 in chips)
matrai66: posts small blind $0.02
Yakss: posts big blind $0.04
Dealt to jordanbillie [Kh][Ad][Jd][5h]
Frenbar: folds
FRUITMAN25: calls $0.04
jordanbillie: raises to $0.18
matrai66: raises to $0.40
Yakss: calls $0.36
FRUITMAN25: calls $0.36
jordanbillie: ????

You're hand's not that great, limping or folding is probably better.

That's what I leaning towards, I just hate limping anything. Can this just be a fold?

It can be but that's a little nitty with a hand that can make the nuts a few ways. If you hate limping I wouldn't play O8, building big pots pre with tiny equity edges and no fold equity isn't ideal.

did you mean to put plo8?

I know in other threads jordan, you've said you've been playing straight PLO recently...

In PLO, flat the 3b and its shove/fold for every other stack since there all at 50bbs, playing shorties in plo sucks

Especially with everyone so short...

u said that the table was pretty aggressive and I see the your oppos have 50 BBs..so u have almost no clue to play 3betted pot without a strong holding..so maybe u could just limp here e call to a raise..
As played u should call or fold imho
