Oil smell and smoke

posted by  someone claiming to be Oil odor on  Mon Jan 23 05:15 CST 2006 [RELATED]

I recently brought my 1997 850 for an oil change and a brake job.

Immediately thereafter, it developed a burnt oil smell in the cabin. I seemed to have located the source from smoke that is coming from a black cap or plug type item several inches below and in front of the distributor.

What is this cap or plug?

Is this indicative of a more extensive problem?

Why would this come up at an oil change (or brake work)?
