    It's not smoking, it's oil mist which is normal. There's an O ring on the dipstick to stop it venting past and It's not meant to be run with the dipstick out.

    Unfortunately it looks like you have wasted your time and money changing the engine and other parts, I looked at one of our loan cars with a 651 engine, and it does exactly the same. I'll try and attach video. Sorry can't upload vid. :(

    I'll check an engine tomorrow and run it with the dip stick out, even tho you shouldn't. As asked before, any other problems? Exhaust smoke? Oil consumption?
