Engine Smoke
After my car has been running for about 5 minutes in my driveway, I notice that smoke is emitting from the back end of the heat exchangers. It's not coming from the muffler end. I do not have the heater flapper boxes installed, and it's coming from the holes they go in. Other than holes in the pipes themselves, is there any other explanation for this?

White smoke - either oil on top or water condensed in the HE.

you have leaky pushrod tube seals or valve cover gaskets...oil pools on the heat exchangers and as they say, " you know the rest of the story"
