I was going to rig a new pcv hose and valve but I can't stand a non factory look so I'm going to take hit and purchase the complete hose from the dealer, I felt around the entire hose last night it was wet with oil residue, and clogged and ripped from pcv itself.

Finally had time to work on the car. The issue was not coolant but a clogged pcv hose and to top it of was busted as well. Really relieved to see oil drop out of hose and find to fresh stops on the floor. I will add pics later tonight.

I am really debating whether or not to change my valve cover gaskets since I know where the leak was coming from. But another part of me says just Effiin do it.
I want to thank all the members who gave me advice, and really motivated me to find the leak and problem.

Glad you found the fix. How much did you pay for the whole new pcv system from the dealer? I broke mine pulling it out today trying to chase an oil leak.
