If it is the guides, you need to find another shop - unless you instructed them in a prescriptive way that prevented them fixing it properly - as all the work they have done already will have to be re-done. You could do a compression test (dry and wet) to determine the state of the rings and/or a compressed air test on the cylinders to see where any leakage is taking place. The reason for more smoke at low power is because the throttle plate is causing a higher vacuum at part throttle, than at full wide open, drawing more oil down the guides, if that is the problem. You could remove your manifolds to see if oil is on the valve heads, if they are accessible. Deposits on the plugs may also indicate whether problem is indeed inlet side (vacuum related), or exhaust side and whether it is all cylinders or just one. Regards, RAB
