If that's oil out the exhaust, I suspect you either dropped a valve or cracked a piston. If either of those, new (or good used) engine time.

Well, look at the bright side, your exhaust system has been rustproofed.

it looks like oil and coolant the first time it's happened. Hasn't been on the road in months only idling for a couple minutes a day

Could it possibly be a oil pump problem. I know mine is bad. Maybe that and it was like 39 degrees outside. Idk I don't really mess with motors.
