    White/gray. Maybe blue.

    The only other time I've seen this is when I've revive up the engine.

          This part is messed up . It's screws are messed up and won't come apart. Looks like a filter inside of the box that looks dirty. Round thing is loose.

            The choke does open right?
            the little plate behind your carb stud
            that is almost closed in your pic..
            Nice pics, can really zoom in as needed.

              The air filter doesn't seal well ? It looks like cinder dust inside your
              air horn. Is that dust ?

                No sign of oil going down the carb, it must have stayed in the air filter.
                That brings up smoke, ignore cold engine smoke, after warmed up,
                cooling fan has cycled, does the smoke go away or get worse?

                  Yes the Carb opens up all the way up in down when warmed up.
                  I don't see any dust.

                    I'll check tomorrow and let the car idle after it's warm to see if it smokes.

                      Soak that o2 and work it loose, it could cause smoke after it warms up.
                      and it could be causing other symptoms too.

                        You mean take it out and see how it runs?

                          Get it soaked good so you can get it out without damage..you said a shop
                          backed out because it was stuck..? When it breaks loose, it might take
                          a few days of spraying and testing until you get it loose, you can clean
                          the threads and put a new denso brand in it.

                          Looking a big jump in mileage or for your check engine light to come on.
                          Looking for warm engine smoke to go away with first possibility.

                          there are some bad possibilities but this makes sure of that without guessing.

                                No smoke while idling warm.
                                Spuddering sound out of the muffler.
                                Still at 24 MPG
                                But haven't got new O2 yet.
                                And need new gaskets because I'm loosing oil!!
