Re: tell me what i did.... Smoke coming out of the (I think you mean dipstick) oil fill tube likely means no more rings, a midly burnt piston(s), or something along those lines. Wonder if a head gasket could do something like that also ??
Missfires could mean trouble with valves (bent, broken, burnt . . . ), something with your plugs, or rings completely gone. Have you pulled the plugs for #3 and #7 and done a compression test, looked at the plugs, or similar?
There are other explanations to the above, including not so good things about your block, bearings, etc., but I would put those lower on the likely list.
Best of luck tracking this down. Hopefully, someone else on this board who knows more than I do will chime in here.
