Engine smoke

And the smells are distinct also.   Hard to describe but if if coolant(steam) and it has antifreeze, it will smell sweet.   Fuel just smells bad, sort of sharp and makes eyes water, oil not so much.

Are you sure it is oil smoke?   Rule of thumb,  Black is Fuel,  White is steam,  Blue is Oil.

 

Just putting in my 2 cents

Anti freeze does have kinda a sweet smell. Gas smells like burnt dinosaur LOL Actually gas has a sharp tangy smell. Run your car rich and you can smell it. Pull the choke out a bit and set fast idle at about 1500 rpm. Oil has a deeper more pungent smell. Oily rags can give off that same odor sometimes.
