Um... is there a question?

I had coolant leaks like yours, but I have since replaced my old rubber hoses with silicone OBX hoses and more convential screw-type hose clamps... none of those inadequate spring-style clamps.

The water from the exhaust pipe is likely to be just condensation.

I don't know what to tell you about the valve cover... change the gasket?

It was somewhat of a question, an open one at that. I was hoping to see any suggestions on where to start first ;X

EDIT: just noticed that I forgot to type the part 'any ideas' in the first post. sorry

That leak from the pipe happens all the time, usually when the car is just started (even when it's noon and hot as fsck out) and stays around for no less than 15minutes. It's usually accompanied by light smoke (blueish, oil, i know).

Thanks for the input though, I think i'll grab those OBX hoses aswell.
