Smoke screen

Well my problem went from bad to worse. My 05 started running rough at idle, then smoothed out a bit but started smoking on acceleration a little. At this point it felt like it had more power than ever before and even ran smoother running up to 3k RPM before shifting (manual transmission). But now it's smoking so bad, I can't really drive it. It's smoking white or gray at idle but blowing black smoke on acceleration. I had a cylinder 5 contribution code but with the amount of smoke it's hard to believe only one injector is a problem. Any idea's, I pulled the EGR valve and it doesn't look stuck open but I'm going to replace it anyway.

Needs a injector,it will smoke that much. Keep running it and it will hydro lock.
