Take a look at the example from the docs:
http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/manual/html/chapter-helloworld.html#section-helloworld

For EOS you want to set a callback to the bus of your pipeline, check in
the callback if the message is EOS and then do whatever you want.

For pad-added just add a callback to the element's "pad-added" signal.
If your element doesn't emit this event it probably always has it's pads
and they're not added while running the pipeline.
