Having spent much DIY time tracking down and fixing everything but the real cause of the smoke and stinking stench, I'm with contributor "fsik" in betting on your oil sending unit as the culprit. From under the car, reach up on top of the cooled catalytic converter and you should feel the sticky oil slick ready for re-heating!!! It's nearly impossible to see the source, as the starter completely blocks the view of the oil sending unit screwed into the back of the engine. Replace the sending unit and breathe fresh air once again!!
P.S. - I didn't know there were such discerning connoiseurs of burning motor oil vintages...!!!
Best of Luck,
Kirk D.
