I looked all around the area above the manifold, can't see any leaking oil there, and neither from around the rear cam seals. I pulled the dipstick, and tested for which way the air blew, it didn't seem to do much at all to a thin piece of paper, as if there were no air movement there. The engine ran just up to temperature and I could see the smoke develop.

Thanks for the tips, I'll take off those cam gear covers next and see how it looks in there.
