Usually valve stem oil seals will:
Give you a whiff of smoke when you first start up, but dies down fairly soon.
Builds up while idling at the lights, again a small blue cloud on takeoff, and thats it.
Some cars can use a lot of oil if the seals are rock hard or perished, or almost no oil usage in the early stages, a very small amount of oil can lubricate the bores on start up, too much and it can start gummimg up the rings.
If it was worn rings and bores, it would be smoking all the time, the smell could be the brand of oil you use?
