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.
