it looks like you are either dumping fuel or your cat is dead or possibly hollowed out?

i would lean more toward a cat issue with the list of other stuff you have replaced.

High HC and CO, combined with very low NOx would indicate that it is running excessively rich.

EDIT: also, would smoke from startup be a sign of a dead cat?

When was the last time you checked your plug wires? O2 sensors?
