I am attaching resume and cover letter as PDF, what do you recommend I put as subject? also, for the body could I say, Hello Mr. ____ you will find my resume and cover letter enclosed. Thank you. ?

I would refer to the specific job that you're applying for - in the subject and in the body. The person receiving the resumes may be working on multiple jobs.

Also, be careful with the Mr. _____ - be sure it is a Mr.

Other than that, it's fine. I get a lot of them, and quickly glance over the intro body in the email.
