Default technical question about oil consumption.

I have a 95 Integra GSR B18C1, I just replaced the engine, because i sucked water into my cold air intake and put 4 holes in the block on cylinder #1.... yeah, that sucked!!!! So bought this used long block for $1200 our cost (shop) The engine runs great, but when in vtec comes in under acceleration, the is smoke from the exhaust (oil). I have exactly 175 psi compression on all four cylinders. Mitchell OnDemand 5 says that 130 psi is service limit and 200 psi is great.... i done a leakdown test yesterday and 2 3 and 4 have massive leaks.... on 4 the leak is coming from 3's spark plug hole and on 3 the leak is from 2's hole and on 2 the leak is from 3's hole... what the heck? Any ideas? Valve guides maybe?

You have a bad head gasket or did not do the test properly, I side with the second choice.
