Your puff of smoke at stoplights could be from many things. Classic sign of worn valve guides is smoke on overrun (coasting in gear, throttle closed).

Oil can pool in the muffler after sitting, as oil level rises in the engine sump, especially as you note, when parked for extended periods with rear lower than front. You’ll get smoke for a period of time as it burns off.
