All members of the Vulcan species, and their sister species, the Romulans, have pointed ears. There is no functional purpose for the pointed ears, it is just a genetic trait.

Mr. Spock's ears are pointed, because he is a Vulcan. All Vulcans have pointed ears.

The Vulcan species has distinctly pointed ears. So Spock, who is half-Vulcan, has this part of the Vulcan physiology.

Mr. Spock was a Vulcan, and all Vulcans were depicted with pointed ears. It was part of their normal appearance.

What does vulcan look like?

Vulcans are a species first introduced in Star Trek: The Original Series. I don't know how you can be a Star Trek fan without knowing what Vulcans look like, but I might as well lend my expertise. Vulcans are characterized by pointed ears, a blank expression, and (my own personal observation) long fingers. They also age to be quite old. While I have no factual basis for this statement, Ambassador Spock, who must have been about 28 in TOS, lived until sometime after Star Trek: Voyager. In Voyager's 6th season Lieutenant Commander Tuvok, who was 28 in the time of Excelsior-class starships, reached his 100th birthday. If you think you have met a Vulcan on the street and he has his ears covered, listen for the word "logical" or "illogical". They say it so often, it's not even funny. Unlike their Romulan cousins, the Vulcans pursued peace, knowledge, and logic. They have green blood. Other characteristics can be found by looking up "Vulcans" on Memory Alpha.

I do recall hearing that Vulcans kissed by touching fingers but not by touching hands so where in Star Trek history did it specify that Vulcans kissed with their hands?

No where in Star Trek does anyone say that Vulcans kiss with their fingers; touching with two fingers is the most contact they will allow themselves to have in public.
