Well, my first step would be checking the basics like vacuum leaks, then move on to the O2 sensors and the MAF. Hope you get it fixed.

Like I said, O2 sensors and the MAF. The MAF could be effing up and causing the the A/F to be off, which is making the 02's read funny, but odds are, they are due for replacing anyway. Clean or replace the MAF, then go from there, still messing up, change the O2 sensors and your car should be good to go.

Raw fuel dumping out the exhaust? That means that you also have fuel in your oil.
Plus the excess fuel will "wash" the cylinder walls and can cause a lot of wear issues fairly quickly.
