The pic isn't that clear but that location with out it running down from somewhere else would be head gasket, or worse as stated above. If compression is getting into the water jacket that could explain the water pump issue. Have a professional look at.
Yep, you probably have coolant leaking into the combustion chamber causing the mis.
Changing head gaskets require tearing down the whole top of your motor. While the gaskets themselves are relatively cheap there is a lot of labor involved which makes it an expensive repair.

I know I duno why I said I hope lol... anyways so the two gaskets sets are gona run me bout 200 each from autozone... anywhere cheaper? Also everyone kept asking me if I have ever overheated the car and I say no they look at me like I'm a liar... so I remember when I 1st got it I had several overheating issues... could this problem come from a sleeping problem caused by the overheating about 2 years ago?
dead on, give me a few and I'll find ya gaskets
advance, its $40 a gasket, just remember you'll need head bolts, I hate torque to yields.....
