i dont know if this will help at all as my LT1 doesnt shoot blue smoke or smell of gas, but it does hate to be restarted right away.
Mine always hates to be started after its heated up. After i give it a few minute break its usually ok"What is each day but a series of conflicts between the easy way and the right way?"

sounds like either leaky injector or regulator. one other possibility is a bad intake or exhaust guide. I had a set of heads with 5 very bad wallowed out guides, it ran ok but sounded like bad lifter or exhaust leak.
