Smoking Engine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So i replaced my whole exhaust and my o2, went back to stock. But now that I have the car all back together, when I started it up I was getting smoke from my exhaust mani, hotside and my o2. I was wondering if it could be because i sprayed pb blaster all over them trying to get the stupid bolts off. Any help would be amazing you guys. For now my even is down and its my only method of transportation.

sounds like its leaking muffler fluid for sure. check the specs on the endline for the rotary girder...if there's excessive play in the linkage, make an appointment with your tuner, he can tune it out. good luck!
