6.0 White smoke

i have a 2004 Ford F-350 with a 6.0 engine and 156,00 miles. Vehicle starts fine but is blowing white smoke. The oil cooler and EGR bypass kit just installed. Any help would be appreciated.

When does it blow white smoke?
All the time or on start up?
Or other?

Well completely white smoke is unburned diesel fuel. Smoke that is white/blueish is typically engine oil burning. Any possible contamination of the fuel system recently?

Coolant can blow white as well..

Was the smoke there prior to the parts change?
Smell like unburned fuel at the pipe, or, sweet smell like vaporized coolant..
