smoke is pretty normal right after injector install. there is alot of excess oil to burn out of the exhuast and cylinders. it should clear up after 20 miles or so.
hydro lock damage can be anything from a bent rod which will eventually break, a broken rod right away, blown head gasket from the fluid pushing out the gasket.
did the engine hit fluid while cranking?

yeah unless you had really had the engine cranking fast then it just plain stopped and had to pull the injectors back out to get the fluid out then put it all back together you didn't hurt any thing. I have had to pull injectors back out before cause I didn't get enough oil out. luckily I was bumping the engine over and not cranking it right up.
