Are you serious? Obviously the hose for the PCV breather is disconnected, its like 1/4 inch away from the grommet. reattach that then see where you're at. -Bob

Lol, i apologize for my ignorance . That is normal for steam to be coming out of there when disconnected, i believe that it's just moisture from the engine that is being vaporized. -Bob

Verify all the hoses are routed right, may be to much crankcase pressure?

I would recommend at this point to get a manual from your local auto parts store. Also under your hood should be a sticker with them.
