Default Update- Help

Car was running fine and starting right up before, just running rich:
Removed the carb, carb sprayed and flushed out all orifices, bleeds etc, replaced idle screw cork seals and gaskets, and of course had to help coil the float bowl main body thread.

the only way it starts now is by giving a ton of fuel while its cranking, when it starts its all over the place, tons of smoke out the tailpipes and oil is leaking oil from exhaust manifold gasket, yes from exhaust manifold gasket, not valve cover.

Removed plugs and they were black and caught fire with a lighter. Replaced plugs and still have to give it a ton of fuel while cranking, when it starts, its all over the place and blows smoke and oil leaks between cylinder 3 and 5 exhaust manifold gasket.
