Default It started smoking

So today my exhaust started smoking alot. It isnt black, kind of a whitish/light grey smoke. I think it is just a lot of normal exhaust. What could my problem be?

I was thinking piston rings, but wouldnt the smoke be really dark? Or burning oil...but that owuld be dark smoke too

whitish light grey smoke could be coolant, fuel, or oil, depending on what kind of oil you're running. when does it smoke?

Well it was smoking all the time. Now I went to check the plugs, which were fine, and I started the car again and it doesnt seem to be smoking that bad anymore.
I am using castrol synthetic 10-30 BTW.

Do you think it might be that my oil return line is tapped too low in the oil pan??
