Default Smoke from the exhaust manifold on a D15b?

I went to some auto auction and I finally seen something. It is a 1994 Del Sol, I think S because it had a D15B. I get inside, might have slight water leakage somewhere, could smell it, and the trunk was alittle wet. I start it up, and its idling at around 1500RPM for about 5 minutes and drops. The I noticed, right in the area of the dip stick, from the ehaust manifold, smoke was coming out. The smoke was gray, smelled like burnt oil, but I really couldnt tell. Does anyone know what it might be?

It is probably just an exhaust leak. Take off the head shield and see what you can tell.

I had a feeling it might not be too big. Some other guy was checking it out, and he was looking at the smoke, I was like, the engine might be bad, doesnt look good That car is mine! (as long as my card doesnt get denied )
