Would suggest you take it, to your mechanic, these are the likely faults on your engine, cylinder head, engine block and a head gasket might have been damaged.

Seems you were sold a car with a bad engine, previous owner must have mixed a lot of oil treatment to hide the smoking engine. If I'm correct your "new" engine oil will blacken quickly. You can try a different oil incase I'm wrong.

Are you sure you didn't overfill your engine oil?

Change back to Mobil engine oil first. But I think the previous owner sold a bad engine to you.

That engine is bad but you should change to mobil first of all to see if the smoking stops.
