Thanks guys, found it and found out it's very easy to remove.

Edit with what I found when I opened the ECU...

Separate capacitors that appears to be leaking...

A couple other spots that looked weird to me...

So I'm thinking this could be the answer to all the problems I've been having with the car, but am open to some input before I go and buy another one.

1st couple of pictures sure does look like the caps took a dump. they are fairly easy to change and are dirt cheap.
