I wont speak to the Exchange objects - other than to my knowledge SCOM doesn't 
use or place anything there, and this is a default hidden container present 
under the root of the domain when exchange is present.  It would appear someone 
made a mistake and dragged and dropped this container.  I'd coordinate any 
changes with your exchange and AD specialists.

As to the momlatencymonitors - this was created my the ADMP in MOM2005, or a 
VERY early version of the ADMP for SCOM 2007.  We don't use it anymore and it 
is totally safe to delete the entire container.

OpsMgrLatencyMonitors is the current container for AD replication.

In the latest ADMP rewrite which just shipped a few days ago - I am not sure we 
even use this anymore.... I need to review how we are handling it.

Subject: [msmom] Safe to Delete 'MOMLatencyMonitors'?

We are currently on SCOM 2012 R2. We do not have any remaining SCOM 2007 or MOM 
2005 servers on the domain. Under the MOMLatencyMonitors container there is a 
sub-OU titled with an old DC hostname that has since been demoted and deleted 
from AD. There is also an OU titled Microsoft Exchange System Objects, which I 
think someone incorrectly moved under the MOMLatencyMonitors container, though 
we do have the Exchange MP installed. But reading through the notes there is 
nothing about such an OU being created. I was hoping for a sanity check via the 
OpsMgr experts.

I want to move the Microsoft Exchange System Objects outside the 
MOMLatencyMonitors container, then delete the MomLatencyMonitors container.

Thank you.
