This is starting to look more like an failed intake gasket. Check you oil make sure there is not coolant in there. If there is it will look like a brown milkshake.

Ohhh boy that doesn't sound too good I checked the oil dipstick and the color of it is brownish-blackish and smells like gasoline

if your getting coolant at the top of the engine then i would agree with gorn, i would say most likely the intake gasket and would explain the coolant at the rear going onto exhaust.

Hmm if it is the intake gasket would it drip down to the bolt under the oil filter and the k member as in the video
