Car smokes when parked

Whenever i park my car and walk away the car smokes oil, is it a busted valve cover gasket or something else?

heheheh. My car did that, too, before the motor swap

On my car it was bad valve cover gaskets, and valve guide seals. It burned oil so badly it came out of my ram air hood and everything. VERY embarrassing.
