Maybe I'm still sleepy here, but did you check to make sure the fork seals don't leak? There is a chance that a leaky fork could drip oil down and get in that area.

Yeah the forks don't leak. Definitely from the caliper.

Update: Cleaned the sh*t out of the caliper and rotor with brakleen. Replaced the pads. Bled the brakes (also a sh*t ton) and it brakes really well now. I can stop safely, so good for me haha
Currently painting the plastics right now, about to sand blast my gas tank and get my decals printed.
