AOS replacement fails?

New Porsche owner here. I have a 2000 Boxster 2.7 and just replaced the AOS after having some smoking during startup and periodic check engine light. All seemed to go well and I took the car out afterward and no smoke and I noticed a marked performance increase. I moved on to project number two, replacing the top, and finished that this weekend. After finishing the top I started the car and lots of smoke billowed out, more than I had before and constant with no let up. I shut the car off and decided to walk away for a bit. My question is; How likely is a failure of the new AOS that quickly? I bought the part from E-bay but it was supposed to be Porsche oem. Has anybody had a similiar experience or any advice as I go in for a second look. Any help is appreciated.
