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?

Oil... are you're vales cover seals leaking?

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.
