White Smoke!!!

Ok i had an O ring blow out on the oil plug on the injector pump the other day. I replaced it and sprayed the motor down with degreaser and washed it off. Then today i changed the oil and fuel filter. Now i have noticed that the truck is white smokin at an ideal. It does not smell like burning oil it kinda has a sweet smell to it. Any ideas on what might be the problem?? Thanks in advance guys

How long has it run with the white smoke being there, a few minutes or a few days?

It just started it today after i changed the oil and fuel filter. I let sit for about 5 hours and fired it back up now its not doing it at the ideal but i didnt run it down the road to check. So if it is coolant where would be a good place to start looking??
