Think its valve/lifter related

I made a few threads on this already but i have a few questions

1. What does a collapsed lifter sound like while accelerating?
2. What does a exhuast leak sound like while accelerating?
3. What does a bend valve sound like while accelerating?

My car idles for 5+ mins fine.. Then it will slowly pour out smoke from exhuast tips.. While the car is driving.. it leaves a cloud of blue smoke if it hit it hard.. What is related to this?

I have the piston rings canceled out on this because it smoked before i did the valve seal job because the person before me didnt put any seals on the valves but it didnt dump out smoke while driving.. now it goes around 5-10 mins of idling before any smoke starts to flow out.

All im asking is for a list of things that can be related to this problem and ill make a list and sit my fat *** outside with a pizza and some soda and go through each possilibity.



Last thread im going to make on this.. The manager wants the car out of here because it isnt tagged so its either i fix this or it goes
