If your question was pertaining to another card and the ruling was not on it, I'm interested so we can add it there.

This is wrong. Imbued have a "pool cost to recruit" of 0 since they are not recruited.
Otherwise, their cost is the value in the green circle.

No, they do have a cost, just not a "pool cost to recruit". You need X Orun where 2X is equal to or less than the "life" cost to influence the Imbued.
Ankha answered above, my attempt to clarify.
There is a distinction between;
A "cost to recruit" which is a specific type of cost that for an Imbued is 0 as they aren´t recruited (nor do they have the blood/pool cost on the lower left corner)
and
A general "cost" which the number at the lower right of an Imbued is.
