ATTN 98 12v problems.!

so im new to this site.and i just bought a 1998 2500 club cab 5.9 12v
i paid 7500 of an older man who took very good care of it.
the problem i have is today i noticed i needed a clutch fan while checking to make sure it was locked up i pushed down on it and the motor turned over. harmonic balancer turned and everything and also the truck smokes.Hey i'm no diesel mechanic but i know enough that i think the motor should'nt turn over that easy but i might be wrong i'm just worried i bought the truck not even a week ago.ANy help would be greatly appreciated i have a 12 month old and alot of bills and don't have money to put into her.

my name is jamison

truck has bully dog intake bully dog 4 inch turbo back ss exhaust.
bully dog stage 2 torque plate bully dog 215hp injectors,automatic with a bigger torque convertor.
