Answer
Sounds like you haven't determined if the random misfire is from one cylinder or bounces around the 7-12 bank.

When you changed the plugs, did you do both sides?  If so, was there a difference between them?  Was one cylinder bad, or the whole 7-12 side, or both sides equal?

The next two areas I would check are the coils and the injectors, or possibly the fuel pump, depending on what you know about whether one cylinder or one bank.
