Question, how is it that the MDA freebase mixes with the petroleum ether added after distillation but after the aluminum oxide addition and filtering, the petroleum ether added before HCl gassing does not mix with the MDA freebase petroleum ether mixture that was filtered?

As someone who done it many times I can tell you one thing, you can purify your product much easier and actually get perfectly white, sparkly amine.
What you do is dissolve crude amine in small amount of boiling EtOH (4-5ml per 1g), after full dissolution add at least 5 times the volume of anhydrous acetone, put in a fridge for a few hours, filter and wash with acetone. That’s it
Your method is a simple recrystallization from a solvent. Of course, it is easier and gives results. The video shows classic acid-base extraction, which has much better qualities for purifying substances. This method can be used for many amphetamine group compounds, such as amphetamine, meth, MDMA, TMA, 2c-b, etc.
