Hi all, engine has had a good service with the bits below replaced. It drives ok but feels a bit flat. On idle it is a little bit rough and smokey, see video below [ame]https://youtu.be/1giYx2L4ztU[/ame]

I'm not a mechanic but thinking head gasket, any other thoughts. Suspected cam timing being a tooth out but double checked and appears to be ok.

Service work just carried out;
Cam belt + tensioner + water pump
Engine oil change + oil filter.
air filter.
spark plugs and Bosch leads fitted.
Fiat thermostat fitted.
New battery
Gearbox oil drained and replaced.
Coolant system flushed and refilled.
