Just when the engine is cold, or once she is up to temperature?

A little smoke on acceleration is normal. You should see how a CUCV smokes at high altitudes.

The so called check valve (housing pressure regulator valve) on the front of the injection pump looks like a pipe nipple. It is right next to the pink wire. The internal valve is a glass ball. When pumps begin to fail, the valve plugs with debris and a band aid fix is to knock the glass ball out of the valve.

Removing the glass ball can reportedly result in fuel drain back / loss of prime in the injection pump when the engine is off causing rough idle and smoke on startup.

Don't think it would smoke after the air worked its way out of the system.
