I know he will never be able to hold his bowels that long so in turn he is going to soil his pen. Should I leave enough room in his pen so that I put a pee pad on the other end? I need your help!

NO!!! do not allow him to poop in his crate, he will end up walking in it and you will have a terrible mess. If you have to be gone for that length of time you need to give him more space. An x-pen or a small room.
