The only thing I can think of is that your sucking brake fluid into the intake. I have heard of this happening before, on a chev half ton, never on a honda though.

just thought i'd add this, take the line that goes from the brake booster to the intake off, at the intake end, cap the hole on the intake and take it for a drive, see if it still smokes, remember you wont have power brakes so drive accordingly. More than likely the rubber bladder in the booster is bad and its allowing brake fluid to get sucked into the intake and burned in the engine.
