Default car smokes after sitting

as stated the car smokes alot of oil after sitting in the morning. This is the valve seals dripping oil down into the cylinders overnight, not the rings right? once it warms up after a minuite or 2 the smoke goes away. It does smoke a litte at wot i think, but its really black/blue and I know im running rich as hell so I don't know if oil is involved with that. but in the morning it smokes ALOT so im guessing valve seals and I could use a valve adjustment also probly.

Another possibility - turbo bearings can leak oil, make a small puddle in the exhaust. That burns up when you start...

you could have a kink in the return line or it could be too small of a return! i did see that you said it smoked before however you could take a look at the oil line also!
