Aluminum is a chemical element so it is a pure substance.
aluminum metal (symbol Al, atomic # 13) is an element and therefore a pure substance. That said, if something is made out of aluminum (like aluminum foil) it is rarely pure aluminum and is typically an alloy composed of mostly aluminum with other metals.

Smoke is a heterogeneous mixture as smoke does not have uniform composition throughout. Homogeneous mixtures can't be filtered, but you can filter smoke out of the air, so it's not homogeneous. Every pure substance is homogeneous, so it's not that.
