Re: This looks bad! Tell me the ugly truth. White smoke + oil . . .

Thats fine....

If you have little oil pressure at factory location, it could be the O ring is missing from the end of the "barbell"...this would allow the filtered oil under pressure to exit the system by the end of the barbell into the rear crank case cover then into the sump....this would overload the PCV system forcing oil into the intake as you have....

I have also seen the barbell installed backwards, giving similar issues you are experiencing...the O ring goes to the rear as in the pic....

I would also change that oil filter, then cut open the old filter to look for metal content on the element...

Hope the missing O ring is your issue, as its a relatively simple repair seeing the engine is on a stand...
