Loosing water, then found the water in the air intake before the throttle body. spark plugs corroded bad. Looks like water is going through the engine and possibly out tell pip. could it be coming from heads or through the plenum.

It could be from either. Pressurize the cooling system when the vehicle is cold and see if you can locate the leak.

Let me know what you find. NOTE:: If the coolant is getting into the combustion chamber, the exhaust will emit a white smoke.
