Default starting to smell smoke/burning oil?

2004 Honda Accord V6 Automatic
On non consistent bases, I am starting to smell smoke/burning oil? I noticed smoke coming from the passenger side on the back of the engine. I did have my oil changed a week prior to the start of the smell.

Sounds like they just spilled oil on the header or the exhaust and its just burning off. I'd check to make sure your oil filter is on tight cause the smell shouldn't last that long. If its leaking, it might be doing so onto the exhaust or some other hot part
