I Am looking at buying a class A diesel from Texas, can anyone tell me if I need to worry about california smog requirements?

We purchased our 2004 Itasca Horizon 36GD with the 330CAT just about 5 years ago and, it DID NOT REQUIRE ANY SMOG TESTING OR CERTIFICATE! The GVWR is 27,910 lbs. So, it is over (considerably) the 14,000 lb. Diesel exempt rule.
California's smog rules change all the time. My son is a Bureau of Automotive Repair Agent and, he sends me stuff on smog all the time. As of the last message he sent me a short while ago, it's still the same, any diesel '97 or newer and over 14.5K in GVWR, is exempt. I have a document that specifically states something about motorhomes (diesels I think but, not sure, will continue to look for it) and exemptions.
