valve seal replacement:Tools to rent,where to get?

my car is blowing bluish-grey smoke
at startup and while idling(not as bad) and some take offs

I know i can get a valve spring compressor tool,but whats gonna hold the the valve?
i know about the air blower in the spark plug hole?
is there any tool that might hold the valve in place?
thanx for any info

thinking bout selling my car for TBI truck
like an 4.3 s-10 or gmc equivalent(I already unstand the FI,somewhat)I just think the tuck would be more practical,especially for Jobs,and not having too much cash blows,and then when I get enough money buy a 91-92G92 optioned formula 305 or T/A or Z
and show those stangers that the 305 is not a boat anchor(230 horse with stove pipe header manifolds,think the stang made that in 93 but had way better exhaust!)

you can stuff rope in the plug hole and fill the cylinder that way to hold up the valve. i prefer air to do it myself.
