MI 87 N/A-13B Blowing Smoke

I know youre supposed to judge the problem by the color. It looks bluish-white and thats one of my problems. It smells more like burning gas than oil though.

Heres what I know as I recently acquired the car:

13B non turbo
140,000 miles (dont know if its been rebuilt)
5-speed
Just got new plugs/wires (NGK)
and a little seafoam.
It needs mufflers really bad as theyre both blown out (Have new ones coming Sunday)
I didnt see the point of putting them on yet until I fix the other problem.

Im going to be doing a compression test in the next couple of days, but haven't yet.

It takes a few seconds to start and then it idles jumpy and as it warms up it abruptly idles smooth. The main problem of concern I'm starting with is the smoking problem.

Leaky Injector?
any other ideas?

I need this back on the road ASAP so hopefully its not a rebuild :/

Yes and no, Its an off and on thing. It'll go 30 seconds without smoking at all, and then start smoking for 2-3 minutes and begin again.
