1:  Does anyone know without a firewall how to block an ip through the
hosts.deny or any other secure method?

is it
ALL: 211.174.53.89 : DENY

You can use the "KNOWN" wildcard.

A better way to block all services not explicitly defined is to make the last 
entry in hosts.allow
ALL : ALL : DENY
removing the need for a hosts.deny.

3: Also, do you have anywhere you can send ips like the above, to either
report them, (i am going to report it to his isp he is in korea - but I am
waiting to do things to him possibly)

Distributed Intrusion Detection System
DShield.org

[root@oannes chkrootkit-0.46a]# ./chkrootkit -q
Possible t0rn v8 \(or variation\) rootkit installed

Give rkhunter a gander.
