well I got my 3/8 wrench out and found the intake bolts loose on the front side of the eng..my friend wrote me this


That's the fuel pressure regulator. Low or no vacuum high pressure, high vacuum low pressure. High fuel pressure means more fuel so low long term fuel trim. Probably not your problem area. I still think your problem in the intake gaskets. Should do those then recheck fuel trim.

Smoke is a sign of a clogged Cat. Use the Cataclean then check the results. If the Cat is inefficient emissions will build up.
