#1 Smoke out of 1 exhaust

Yes is a strange one.we started this new build while the front was still on axle stands at the front and we had masses of smoke out of the rear 3 cylinders at the tailpipe.
I ca not start it every day because it is in a factory and we have to switch the fire alarms off.i had an inkling it could be oil pudding in the rear of the rocker box and flooding the valves. Anyway started today level and horay no smoke whoopee.
