    Peach Leaf Curl can effect the fruit by causing premature fruit drop, fruit that does not ripen or cause no effect on the fruit.
    If you do have fruit, yes you can consume it.

    Not sure where you garden, but late season frosts are a common reason for peach trees not to fruit. Immature buds can get frozen off easily.
    It that's not a possibility, you might want to Google Cooperative Extension for (your) County and find a nearby extension agent to talk with. Their help is free and they are usually super knowledgeable about the conditions, pests and diseases in their area. They're a great resource that many people don't know about.

    Though I don't have an image of your tree 'pests', I believe your tree is infested with Lecanium Scale.

    This link has more information on this pest and how to manage them.
