I have heard novice time to swap the plenum is 8+ hours.
The washer fluid question was a test question to confirm you had a shroud. Have a shroud... and you also have a overflow tank since they are all one piece.
The 'dry' coolant around the neck was wet moments ago. It 'dries' right away on a 200 degree metal surface. THERE is your leak. If the neck just looks bad, who cares. If it is bad, replace of course. It's the gasket that is allowing the loss. Take it off, swap the stat and gasket and your set there (if the neck is good.)
