In PA if the later one has wording that this POA revokes all prior POA's, the second one rules.

Could he, as a third party, delay the proceedings with a caveat or lawsuit if he believed he was entitled to compensation from the deceased?

This is certainly an interesting question. The first question would be where had the deceased lived If she was in Florida then what I suggest will apply, if she was from another state, or her property was in another state I would suggest following those rules. In Florida once a person has passed the executor must publish a notice to creditors so that a creditor may have a right to claim against the Estate. The creditor only has 30 days to submit a claim, or the claim will be deemed waived. Possibly your character could submit a a claim against the estate for money owed. Then to gum up the system, he doesn't have a contract or bill to prove the allegation, but simply a letter written by him (or her) stating he is owed the money. If the claim is disputed then the Court's will need a hearing on the issue, which delays estate proceedings. Good luck, keep us posted.

There are a lot of holes in what you are saying but I will be the following is applicable: In Michigan a house is that is in the name of both a husband and wife is held as joint tenants with a right of survivorship. So when your dad passed first the house may have gone to your mom irrespective of what was in his will and irrespective of your alleged interest in the house. If that is what happened your mom's will controls the final disposition of the house.
