Then I will have 2 wires remaining (white and red) do I just run those to my receiver say under "dvd" set my receiver to dvd, set my tv to component and it should work, correct?

Nope. The red/white jacks on the TV are inputs. The so-labeled DVD Audio Input jacks on the receiver are also inputs. You can’t connect an input to an input. Repeat after me: “Output to input. Output to input.” Got it?

Whatever you have that has the component video outputs – it will also have the red/white audio outputs. That’s what you want to send to the TV. Or the receiver, if you want its audio coming out of the sound system instead.

I'm still unsure on how to connect the digital though. It has 1 port on the back of the receiver which is not an rca jack.

That’s for an optical cable (the RCA is for a coaxial cable).

My xbox will only have the component cabling, not sure how it would have a coaxil or optical out, do you have some pictures of an example?

The Xbox should have an optical output, according to this picture I found on-line:
