thats the oil separator that goes to the PCV valve.
cant say the smoke is normal, its usually supposed to be sealed. buttheres really only a oring that seals that hole.
you could seal it if you wanted with a freeze plug and rely on blowby exiting out through the valve cover hose.
but see if just putting a new oring in there will reseal it.

eh? its just a box with a few baffles... any liquid in it will drain back into the engine.
just replace the o ring...
