Your #2 cylinder sparkplug is probably oil fouled. Passenger side middle cyl. check it, replace if needed & check #1 & #3 if #2 was bad then get on the hwy & burn out the rest of the oil. Just be aware if the smoke gets worse shut off the engine. The engine can Hydrolock if enough oil gets in a cylinder & bend a connecting rod, but I think you are safe unless the AOS starts dumping oil again.
