Does the heat guage work? And if so, what did it show when you was out on your test drive and upon your return??? Did it show that it was over heating? Or if a non-functioning guage, did it show signs of over heating (steaming or boiling over at the radiator cap???
Because if you replaced the distributor, and you didn't get the timing set right, this could possibly cause overheating.
This wouldn't exactly explain any of the leaking (other than out the radiator cap/overflow). However, if the coolant system built up more pressure than it had been doing before, it might aid in or develope leaks in places it hasn't leaked before. As in, maybe the system only built up 10 lbs of pressure before, but when you overheated it, it built up to 15 lbs or whatever the cap is rated for.
If the over flow tube is broke off at the radiator neck, then the over flow will just blow out where the tube us broke off (at the top of the radiator). Then it just travels downward and gets all over and blown around by the fan. Water appears in places where it didn't even leak from. I think you get the idea.
This might not be your problem, or might not explain all of what you got going on. But with what you got going on, it is definately something to think about. Because it just might be responsible for some of what you got going on.

Today's Featured Article - Show Coverage: Journey to Ankeny - by Cindy Ladage. We left Illinois on the first day of July and headed north and west for Ankeny, Iowa. Minus two kids, we traveled light with only the youngest in tow. As long as a pool was at the end of our destination she was easy to please unlike the other two who have a multitude of requirements to travel with mom and dad. Amana Colonies served as a respite where we ate a family style lunch that sustained us with more food than could reasonably fit into our ample physiques. The show at Ankeny
