Default My compression test

Hi,
After a fresh rebuild (Nissan head gasket, head verified for skimming or not), my car smoke some white one throught exhaust.
So i check the compressions (motor on heat):

cyl1:

cyl2:

cyl3:

cyl4:


In order to fix if the turbo leaks some water in the exhaust, the water line which feed the turbo return to intake manifoild.

Still smoke, at idle, at middle throttle.
I notice some smoke -grey- in exhaust gasket area (head/exhaust manifoild? or manifoild/turbo?)

No shaft play at left-right a few front-rear about my stock T2.

What do think about?
P.S: i'll order sooner some nissan exhaust gaskets, any better one?

how much running in time/miles has the engine had since the rebuild?
when i built my current engine with pistons and re-bore etc, it did smoke a little to start with whilst it bedded in. also there was some oil to be burnt off that i used to lubricate all the internal parts when re-assembling the engine.

it soon settled down and stopped smoking as the rings etc bedded in
