And don't forget to keep an eye on the exhaust see what color your smoke is.
This was a problem with some heater plugs brands/years of usage etc
It's worth a check to illuminate it. I'd be thinking it may well be the problem. If not maybe advance the injector pump a little as from the video not sure but thought there might be a little miss when it was ticking over.

Inline pumps have the output tubes in a fore-aft line along the top of the pump. CAV rotary pumps have the output tubes at the rear end of the pump in a distributor (120 degree distance) configuration. 3000s came out with both. I have a CAV and my FO-41 I & T manual shows Simms.

It produces that blue smoke the whole time. And if you stay behind it your eyes start to burn. Not to mention that your hair will absorb the smell.
Even after two hours of hard work, eg plowing/rotavating, it will be the same.
I will take some more pictures

I'll try to figure out whether the intake hose is leaking.
What can I check at home, that doesn't require professional tools/knowledge? Thermostart? Heating plugs?

Check this in the air intake for leaking fuel to the engine

Follow that line that's hi-lited in the photo & see where it goes.. does it go over to the injection pump??
IF it does, That would be your "thermo-start".. it allows a small amount of fuel to pass thru a "glow-plug" & create a small fire in the intake manifold for cold starting..
That PLUG might be leaking fuel into the intake instead of shutting off when not needed.. I've seen it happen quite a few times..
IF that's what it is>> just unscrew it out of the manifold & run the engine & see if the smoke cleared up.. quick & simple..
