Question / Help Steam is pixalated, tried various settings

Log does not contain a streaming session (and therefore is missing settings).
Also OBS 0.14.0 will bring deinterlacing for video devices which will solve your stripe issues.
 
You nearly got it :-) That last log has a start but not the stop :-( Start a stream and stream for a few minutes. Stop the stream and then before you close go to Help, Log Files, Show Log Files. Sort by Date Modified and then look in the files and find the latest one that has this line in it:

==== Streaming Stop ================================================

Then upload that and we'll take a look

1) Lower the bitrate to 2500 or 2200 and see if that helps, currently your bitrate is 3500 and that is overkill for 720p at 30fps.

how should that help? lower bitrate = worse video quality

I'm new to log reading but it seems like your input is 720x480 and than you upscale it to 1280x720. you seem to stream on twitch and not youtube so scaling it to 1280x720 is pointless because twitch doesn't reencode your stream.
 
Just to add some information, if I have OBS Studio pulled up and am just watching my gameplay(not starting stream yet), I still get the same pixalation.

If there is a network problem then lowering the bitrate would improve things. However it doesn't look like that's the case although the network numbers from the Twitch bandwidth tester are not great you can at least connect OK :-)

As far as the pixelisation appearing I think that @TryHD hit the nail on the head. In your log it shows that the Roxio is set to 720x480. Can you post a screen shot of the following configuration page, right click the Capture card in Sources and choose Properties, select Configure Video and screen shot whatever comes up. You can use the snipping tool in Windows to easily capture the screen and then the Upload a File button to include it in a post.

Snip from the log just for information:

video device: Roxio GameCAP HD PRO
resolution: 720x480
