Car has a boosted z6 in it and it has smoke pouring out of the timing belt cover.

Looks white like coolant smoke, however, it DEFINITELY smells like oil.
Car idles and runs perfectly fine, except it just SMOKES!

Crank bearing seal?
Oil pump?
Timing belt cover gasket?

Thanks HT!

why dont you take off the cover then look where its coming from, bc it sounds like a headgasket but idk never happen to me before

I was trying to see what I was getting myself into before i took things apart.

You need to take the valve cover off to get the timing belt cover off. Guess I could just put the valve cover back on and start it up?

yeah lots of ppl that live in the city dont have the entire timing belt cover on so take it off and put the valve cover back on of course and start it up
