Default White Smoke

Need help, I have a 1980 Euro 928 which just had timing chain replaced. The car was sitting for about 5 months without being started. When started everything was okay for a short time and now it is smoking very bad when revved. I also noticed that the hose to where you add oil is swollen, when looking in there appears to be sludge. Does antone know what maybe the problem? Oil pump?

My guess would be valve guides/seals.

Usually white smoke is from burning coolant. One way for coolant to get into your cumbustion chamber is the head gasket... just a hunch.
