Sounds like its worth it to go and replace the glow plugs IMO. Stopping the smoking/shuddering with cold starts (classic symptoms of glow plug failure) would be a relatively inexpensive way to gain another negotiating point and pass on a better working car to your friend rather than gambling on an injector. That is just my $0.02.
