I'd say the IH plugs were oil fouled and because you said "...it smokes a bit on start up..." I'd guess that your valve guides might be worn and/or the stem seals on the intake valves are shot. It smokes at start up because oil drips into the cylinder down an open valve. At low rpm (high manifold vacuum), you may also sucking in some from the intake valve guides/and worn stem seal . At high rpms under load,(low manifold vaccum) the problem is greatly reduced. Regarding the JD, that looks like it carboned up from being too cold a plug, too rich a mixture, or not working it hard enough to get the engine to operating temperature and running it under some load. Without more info, it's hard to say anymore than that.
