Take of his blood - The putting the blood of the sacrifice on the tip of the right ear, the thumb of the right hand, and the great toe of the right foot, was doubtless intended to signify that they should dedicate all their faculties and powers to the service of God; their ears to the hearing and study of his law, their hands to diligence in the sacred ministry and to all acts of obedience, and their feet to walking in the way of God's precepts. And this sprinkling appears to have been used to teach them that they could neither hear, work, nor walk profitably, uprightly, and well-pleasing in the sight of God, without this application of the blood of the sacrifice. And as the blood of rams, bulls, and goats, could never take away sin, does not this prove to us that something infinitely better is shadowed out, and that we can do nothing holy and pure in the sight of a just and holy God, but through the blood of atonement.
Ref to Ex 30:20
They shall wash with water, that they die not - This was certainly an emblematical washing; and as the hands and the feet are particularly mentioned, it must refer to the purity of their whole conduct. Their hands - all their works, their feet - all their goings, must be washed - must be holiness unto the Lord. And this washing must be repeated every time they entered into the tabernacle, or when they came near to the altar to minister. This washing was needful because the priests all ministered barefoot; but it was equally so because of the guilt they might have contracted, for the washing was emblematical of the putting away of sin, or what St. Paul calls the laver of regeneration and the renewing of the Holy Ghost, ( Tit 3:5), as the influences of the Spirit must be repeated for the purification of the soul, as frequently as any moral defilement has been contracted.
Honestly I don't know why , I have my thoughts but that's all they are , here they are : the blood is to consecrate , Jesus would have had blood on his head hands and feet when he was on the cross , the thief on his right made a confession of guilt and recognised Jesus's innocence and was forgiven his sins , thief on the right , right ear thumb and big toe , is there a connection there ? Honestly I don't know , I'm sorry , just my mental meanderings .
Lev, 8:23 And he slew it.-Better, and he killed, as the same word is rendered in the Authorized Version in Leviticus 8:19, that is, Moses killed it.
And put it upon the tip of Aaron's right ear.-To teach him that, as the mediator between God and His people, it was his bounden duty to hearken to the commandments of the Lord.
And upon the thumb of his right hand.-To remind him that henceforth he is to execute God's will, and walk in the way of His commandments. And he {f} slew it; and Moses took of the blood of it, and put it upon the tip of Aaron's right ear, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot.
(f) Moses did this because the priests were not yet established in their office.
***Learning of the bible is great but keep in mind, after Jesus BDR we do not do these things any more. God sacrificed His son for our sins. NOTHING else needs to be done or your telling God "what you did wasn't enough so I'm doing to do this or that to add to what you did. NOTHING needs to be added. God sent His son to die for our sins...period. Jesus's last words said it ALL.. "It is finished."

Leviticus 9:6, Leviticus 9:16, Leviticus 9:23-24, Leviticus 14:14,17,25,28,
Exodus 29:20, possibly symbolic ear = Exodus 15:26, Psalms 10:17, Proverbs 28:9, Luke 12:3
Interestingly it was the high Priest's servant's right ear: Luke 22:50,51, John 18:10,11,12,
Additional scripture about toes & GOD's justice, Judges 1:6,7,
Hopefully these are helpful in your study
