You can leave out the coolant for now if your still flushing the system. But, If its freezing where you aare better run antifreeze to protect the block from freezing. The steam coming out the catch tank bothers me. You should not be having that. As for the aftermarket temp gauge not moving sounds like the block has an air lock in it. Try lifting the drivers side wheel so any trapped air can flow up to the top drivers side of the radiater. Dawn Dishwashing blue liquid detergent cleans the oily mess better than the other crap. Just do it a couple of times. As for loosing oil that could be a drip, bad valve seals or plenty of other things. After 2 dawn flushes any leftover oil will collect in the catch can where its easy to get rid of because that fluid is not completely draining back into the radiater. Some off the bottom does but not very much. It mostly goes back and forth as the water or coolant expands or contracts.
