smokey on startup all of a sudden

350 TPI speed density setup.
All of a sudden my engine is very smokley on startup and seems to have oil coming out of tail pipe when i rev it cold
engine oil on air filter side of throttle body
pcv valve working correctly
once warm no smoke
I reecntly had a sticking ICV but now doesn't seem to be working at all (no idle up when cold anymore)
ANY thoughts would be great

Re: smokey on startup all of a sudden

Pull the valve covers.

Inspect oil seals on valves.

Now, it COULD be a failed piston ring letting combustion gas past the piston, and over-pressurizing the crankcase, and blowing oil into the intake.

But, Occam’s Razor and all,... I’d inspect the valve seals as a first suspect.
