If there's certain types of residue on it, like setting it on the grass and water gets on it, then it would smoke, but it would eventually go away.

A bad o2 sensor at worst would make the car run rough. The smoke will burn off so just take it for a spin for a couple miles. The JB weld on the header is going to cause you some extra smoke though and to be honest it was a dumb idea, quit being cheap and go get someone to weld the fukking thing up already.
