You have accumulated oil in your plenum. Clean it out and put a catch can on there. If you've got some miles on the car, you could change the $16 PCV valve also (takes 5 mins if you have the large socket required to get around that valve). Smoke will go away. Promise.

Well.....bought a catch can today and I will install it with new pcv some time next week. I will also pull the plenum and clean it out.
