I suffered a Run away diesel

Here we go again.....
Drive the 40 minute home, was great until the last 5 minutes when I came off the motorway. Clouds of white smoke again.
Here is a video link to see while it is idling.

Is it diesel? Pretty sure white smoke can also be water.

The coolant level has not dropped at all. The difference between the two is white coolant disappears fairly quickly. White diesel smoke hangs in the air. Plus. I can smell it.

That’s a downer, did you look at the cam lobes and followers for flat spots when it was stripped that could be quite noisy , has it got some side covers you can remove to look at some of the lobes,

I was going to remove all the followers but then I needed it done asap so skipped it. Probably a silly idea as that will be head off again. Although the smoke would come and go from followers... Would it.......?
