Oil smelling. I've noticed something about how I start the car. I had developed a habit of stepping on the accelerator while starting the ignition. For the last two days I have not stepped on the accelerator while turning the ignition. Ive noticed that there hasn't been any smoke whenever I've done this. I'll keep you posted.
