Hmmm I would check your oil cooler. Seems to me that would be the only place that you touched when changing your oil ( oil filter ) that coolant could have gotten into the system. Assuming you changed the filter of course.

Update: Ran my car for about a minute and parked it right back. Removed my spark plugs and cylinder number 2 shoots out the same exact smoke/smell.

Busted gasket?

I'm picking up a reader tomorrow. It would be very useful right now.
