fluid from tailpipe

hello i'm new to this forum so hello everyone, i had missfire codes on 2&8 cylynders and the smell of gas. Truck was sputtering when in gear with the brake on and jumpy when driving. Checked the cop's, and camshaft sensor so i changed plug's, found oil on top of one plug. after i changed plugs the truck is running fine but i noticed i have fluid coming from tailpipe almost watery. Any ideas why?

My guess would be that it is condensation and other garbage from when it was running bad. A good drive at operating temp will probably clear it out.
If you have COPs you have posted on the wrong page (easy done) and it may be worth asking on the page for your truck.
