wow i think this is one of the 1st post ive seen in a while where the guy wasnt flamed for asking common questions. Good job boys!
Any-who, i would check the oil line for the turbos, and/or if that not leaking, it could be bad turbos aswell.
What does the smoke smell like?
Color?

man you really should find someone local who know what he is doing, a fuel leak is no joke. You have to remove the rats nest to get to the fuel system, no other way, it is a very big job. You do a vacuum job if you never made one while you are in there.

you need to install a fuel pressure gauge in the pressure side on the fuel lines, this way you'll see if you have a fuel leak.

Since you are already there. Replace it anyways. They are known for going bad and creating fires, so have a little more assurance knowing that you have a new one.
