Remarks: Does anyone know what the two lines of smoke which are trailing the wings? Is it dumping fuel or is it just bypass air? I see it alot in the 737 models. On 16R approach.

The white "smoke" is water droplets that have condensed from the water vapour in the air due to the reduced air pressure in the vortices created by the outer corners of the flaps.
