Default Couple Issue

Hello All!

Having some issues with my 96 powerstroke and came for help. I spent hours searching and came up with a couple "could-be" issues but none seemed to link together.

The issues:
Strong white smoke on startup. Smells like diesel fuel and burns eyes. Truck will stall constantly during warm-up, sometimes even down the road. Rough idle as well. Once truck is warm and running a while it seems fine. Power is normal.

Fuel usage has gone crazy, using lots of fuel. Checked in the valley and seems some fuel, but cannot find a leak.

If the CAM sensor is bad, would this cause such poor fuel mileage as well as the stalling? Also, if there is a fuel leak around the pump, could this cause the white smoke and stalling? Or, could it just be a combination?

Many thanks on your thoughts!
