quote: also could be piston rings as piston rings form a seal against bore when engine warmed up. if smoking on start up this can indicate wear on piston rings, so not sealing correctly.....however more than likely it will be valve stem seals had leaked oil when car not running. | |

probably valve stem oil seals. oil leaks past them while the engine isnt running and drips into the cylinder and gets burnt as soon as you start the engine. | |
