No.. Bluey is oil, grey/white is unburnt diesel and black is partially burnt diesel
Erm.....come follow the golf while its shitting unburnt oil through the exhaust....it's white, trust me I saw enough of it!
Its not actually the fuel type but the amount its been burnt that causes the colour. (Except with piston ring problems where you get burnt oil as blue smoke)
White is unburnt - hence the misfiring NAD with a broken glowplug and the golf with the blown turbo both shit white out the back.
Black is partly burnt fuel - hence lots of black smoke when you're overfuelling at 4.5k rpm as the turbo cant push enough air in.
