So with the large jam of teams in Alpha tied for 3-5, who has the inside track for the final 2 home games? Anyone done the math yet?

Logjam indeed. And it's actually 3-7.
As they stand now:
3. Auckland Old Gold & All Blacks, 10-5-0
4. Christchurch Fighting Maori, 10-5-0
5. (N.M.I) Pagan Fire Eaters, 9-6-0
6. Gold Coast Vipers, 9-6-0
7. Fiji Ventures, 9-6-0
Matchups in Week 16:
Toss-up
3. Auckland Old Gold & All Blacks, 10-5
6. Gold Coast Vipers, 9-6
Toss-up
5. (N.M.I) Pagan Fire Eaters, 9-6
7. Fiji Ventues, 9-6
Should Win
4. Christchurch Fighting Maori, 10-5
10. Adelaide Black Snakes, 6-9
All things being equal, Christchurch should win to capture the #3/#4 seed. I will assume this.
And if Auckland wins, they seal up the #3 seed.
Losses make the whole thing very interesting.
1. Someone must lose (or tie, but highly unlikely) between N.M.I. and Fiji. Winner will be 10-6, Loser will be 9-7.
2. A Gold Coast "upset" will make there be THREE 10-6 teams, with the following 2 possibilities:
4. Auckland: 1-1 (646)
5. NMI win: 1-1 (538)
6. Gold Coast: 1-1 (432)
4. Gold Coast: 2-0
5. Auckland: 1-1
6. Fiji win: 0-2
Assuming Christchurch wins, the #1 team in each scenario above claims the #4, and last, home field spot. In Scenario #2, the head-to-head tiebreakers give it outright to Gold CoastIn Scenario #1, we go down to the tiebreak: Most Points Scored. You can thank Williamsport gutting midseason for the wild score discrepancies. And they say gutting midseason has no effect on the league...

Something else to consider is that Micronesia vs. GERMAN will decide the last playoff spot, and the winner of that game will be 9-7 too.

True, but German would only get 8 seed at best because they lost the h2h with those they would be tied with.
A MM win could make it interesting though if Gold Coast loses (since MM owns the h2h there), and even more interesting if Fiji also loses.
