its probably your valve cover that's leaking just pressure wash it and ad Lucas engine treatment in it an it should stop the leaking but its not a big problem alot of those cars do that

if you have oil all over the place. you definetly have an oil leak.. is there a puddle under the car? check your oil.. daily. the best time i check mine is first thing in the morning.. before you start the car.. get a good reading.. dont run it out of oil or you will be looking for a new car.. you can pressure wash it .. but be careful. your not going to want to get water in the carb.. i have left my car running when i washed mine.. but you may want to check.. that way if you wash it you can find where the leak is...

If the smoke was blue it's oil, just keep an eye on your oil level. If the smoke was white it was water or coolant, either you ran over a puddle or you have a small leak , keep an eye on your coolant level in the radiator NEVER OPEN IT HOT!

if there is oil there is a leak ....could be as simple as a new oil cap or a gasket....you can wash the engine at most car washs' but take a little advise..leave your car running if you do

Oil change and filter re-newal. Get any leaks patched up while you're at it.
