So what should my next move be?
Thinking of opening valve cover and inspecting. New gasket of course.
Going to pull plugs when I get home and take pics of them for you guys.
Thanks for all the help, sorry for the attitude about the video description, just frustrated with it all.

I think I would carefully inspect the fuel vapor pipe and the fuel pipe. All of that rust could have spread causing a vapor/vacuum leak. I think you could blow some low pressure air into the tube under the hood and listen. Should cause a code but who knows?
You need to find out where the water is coming from. There appears to be some oily component in the puddle.
Valve cover gasket is an O-ring, should be good.
Do an exhaust gas check on the coolant.
Does it overheat?
pushing lock + panic on the fob is remote start assuming it is turned on in the DIC. (look in the Owner Manual). It may not have it if you don't have TPMS.
