A bit of blue smoke when starting is fine, as long as it clears and any smoke doesn't remain blue. Any smoke you see out the back when flooring it is probably black which is just improperly burnt fuel. It's fine as long as it's not excessive. But any blue after running for a while means you're burning oil.
If it's lumpy when cold then you probably have bad glow plugs, nothing serious.
