Open translation for this passage
τούτῳ μὲν τῷ ὕδατι ἐς τοσοῦτο μέτεστιν ἀληθείας, Κυανεῶν δὲ τῶν πρὸς Λυκίᾳ πλησιαίτατα χρηστήριον Ἀπόλλωνός ἐστι Θυρξέως·
The first clause is an impersonal μέτεστιν construction: τούτῳ τῷ ὕδατι is the dative participant/source and ἀληθείας is a genitive of content. The second clause has χρηστήριον as subject, Ἀπόλλωνός as genitive dependent on it, and ἐστι as copula with Θυρξέως as predicate; Κυανεῶν τῶν πρὸς Λυκίᾳ is a genitive place/name phrase, with πλησιαίτατα modifying the implied location relation.

φυγεῖν δὲ ἐς τὴν Ἀρόην οἱ Πατρεῖς φασιν αὐτὸν τοῖς τε ἐς τοὺς παῖδας παθήμασι καὶ τὸ ὄνομα αὐτὸ πεφρικότα τοῦ Ἄργους καὶ ἐς πλέον τοῦ Δαναοῦ δείματι.
The infinitive φυγεῖν is the complement of φασιν, with αὐτόν as its accusative subject; τοῖς ... παθήμασι, τὸ ... πεφρικότα, and δείματι are coordinated instrumental causes, while τοῦ Ἄργους and τοῦ Δαναοῦ depend on their respective nouns/expressions. The attachment of τὸ ὄνομα αὐτό πεφρικότα is somewhat difficult; πεφρικότα agrees with αὐτόν and is predicative/causal.
