let my car idle for like 10 minutes while i figured out the fact that my heating system actually works, and when i shut the car off there was a noticeable about of smoke comin from over near my elbow/manifold, and it has no distinct color. i figure it's just vapors and stuff since it hadn't been started for 2 weeks, but what else might cause it?

they probably are, but only God knows. there's oil caked everywhere on my block and everything, so there's no way to tell where a specific leak would be comin from. not sprayin anywhere or anything like that, but there's gotta be a few leaks comin from somewhere... oil doesn't just show up. i need to replace the seals just because, but i haven't had time.
