Default Smoke out of exhaust when i Idle for over 5 mins

I just realized today after talking to my friend for about 5 mins or so while my car was on that it started to smoke out of the exhaust. So i tested it again when i got home tonight and it did the same thing again. I don't seem to have any problems while i am driving from what i can tell. I did a compression test tonight b/c i was affraid the rings were shot but they all seem to be ok across the board. Could i be running to rich or lean at idle. I guess i could say that it nave a hint of white/blue in it.

Thanks -Corey

Exactly what I was gonna post, mine did the same back in the day when I had a bad bend going to the oil pan, since then it's more of a straight downward shot and no more smoking.

Sounds like that is the prob. The return line goes down and then back up into the oil pan. Somebody actually told me to fix that today. thanks.
