Took my car on a cruise last night, and when I made it home saw smoke coming from the engine. I'm assuming its the valve cover gasket? Just making sure since they're only 6 months old since theyve been replaced... Or could it be leaking from oil cap tube?

Re: Leaking Valve Cover
None of that looks bad enough to cause smoke, or at least enough smoke for you to see.
I would check around, maybe look and see if the y pipe has any oil on it.Team NoVa

Re: Leaking Valve Cover
Wiped the residue oil off the cover today, looked around for any leaks but still cant find the source
Its starting to smoke worse than it did last night, guess ill jack up the car tomorrow and check the y pipe im guessing it would be the rear main seal??
