Oil leak and smoke when oil is full

I've noticed that the valve lifters are MUCH quieter when I keep the oil full to the maximum (not over full), but I've noticed smoke while the car is running, as if oil is dripping on the exhaust system. It's especially evident at stop lights and smoke can be seen coming out of the passenger side air vent. I don't see any actually pooling or dripping under the parked car. It only seems to occur while running.

Anyone have any experience with this or suggestions where the oil is leaking?
