nah they don't need to still be alive, so yup Chris Amon, Keke Rosberg and Phil Hill were all smokers.
Here is a list of some more ex-F1 smokers, not sure if this is 100% complete or correct though but I've seen all these names mentioned:
Phil Hill
Arturo Merzario
Maurice Trintingnant
Jochen Rindt
Manfred von Brauchitsch
Felice Bonetto
Chris Amon
Elio de Angelis
Francois Cevart
Patrick Depailler
Jan Magnussen
Jean Pierre Beltoise
Mario Andretti
Michael Andretti
Mika Salo
Thomas Enge
Keke Rosberg
Some tidbits about some of them:
Keke Rosberg
"I'm driving a car not running marathons" was his usual reply to being asked if smoking and being a top sportsman were compatible interests.
Straight after smoking a cigarette during qualifying for the British GP in 1985 Keke Rosberg set a lap with what was at the time the highest ever average speed in F1 history (259.005kp/h)
Mika Salo
Claimed his lung problems were due to the brake dust from F1 cars and not his smoking
Michael Andretti
Claimed one of the reason he got dropped from McLaren was because of his smoking
Jan Magnussen
Before entering F1 full-time in 1997 he promised to quit smoking as long as the Ford engine kept the same promise.

May I go next? Rubens Barrichello had a storming race at the British Grand Prix in 2003, finishing on the top step of the podium after pressuring Kimi Raikonnen into a mistake to take the lead. But what did Rubens do after the race at Heathrow airport which was a mistake by himself? I hope nobody is able to get this..
