Alright, so I've have my Cherokee for awhile, and haven't driven it much at all. I recently replaced a leaking radiator. I moved it about a 15 mile distance and it was running fine. I needed to move it in the driveway, so I did that, but while pulling it back in I heard a strange noise. A white smoke is coming from the valve cover around the oil fill cap. This isn't after it's been driven awhile...all I do is turn it on, (last time I turned it on the rpm went down like it was about to die, and then up to normal), wait maybe 15-30 seconds, and I've got light smoke. Engine temp seems normal. Coolant levels are fine and aren't dropping. My oil level is ok. I'm leaking some oil from the valve cover but very little, and I haven't gotten around to fixing it.

Any idea as to what it could be?

It was actually the valve cover leaking onto the manifold. Thanks, though.
