You only need to ask in one place
Yeah there are only two dampers, I'm sure your mechanic is looking at the right thing. The reference to 4 is probably from them copying the instructions from another car like maybe a G37.
There shouldn't be any "clanking noise" from the new exhaust, go back to your mechanic and let him hear it.
Your smoke question is a bit vague to diagnose via forums, could be any number of things. Could be a leak in the midsection, could just be the anti-seize compound burning off from the flange bolts (that smokes for a little while). Could just be smoke out of your tailpipes blowing up by the window, beats me.
