All I can say is if it was that oil seal then by now that engine would of told you to go a do one , because it would of seized by now ,
But seeing as it seems to be " missing " on 1-2 cylinders could be signs of injector failure , and I've known some injector failures to also make the top,end of the engine sound as if an expensive repair is looming , and I knew of someone who's car was misdiagnosed by one garage that said it required a new engine, then he took it elsewhere and turned out to be an injector . You say it's got white smoke yes true there's redex in there but if it keeps on blowing out white smoke then that denotes unburnt diesel .
But we are playing a very expensive form of guess the fault , as said above stop using it and get it looked at toot sweet , but keep us informed, as it helps others with maybe the same kind of fault .

Thanks , wish I could up load the video so can have a look and listen ,, I did think from the beginning injector but with the engine sound and wierd noises that are intermittent makes you wonder , also thinking diesel pump not supplying enough , do need to get it looked at but that situation were most garages never no and just start replacing things , until they fix it at our expense , if I could remove the injectors my self I would change them and have a look before taking it in but don't have removal tools , shouldn't a injector fault throw up codes cheers
