There's usually only a couple of reasons for white smoke and you've ruled out the most likely causes. The last thing maybe has to do with your fuel injection system, maybe an injector or timing.
Hopefully a mechanic can figure it out for you. Be sure and keep us updated on fix.

I talked with the service dept. today where I bought the tractor and we came to the conclusion that my next step would be checking the injectors and fuel pump. So I’m looking for a engine schematic. Anyone know where to get one?
Thanks

I would say a bad head gasket or cracked head. Bad filter would give you black smoke.
Not necessarily. He is smelling unburnt fuel. Most of the time unburnt fuel will smoke "white" as it applies to a diesel engine.

I have a 3016/3616 service manual. I got mine as a "disc" from the dealer where I purchased the tractor.

Check the hot wire going to the glow plug rail. They often come loose and can cause your symptoms.
