Maybe Not The Major Problem But Now Just Abit Wierd!?help!

[daz gt turbz]

well after replaceing my water pump after it went on the way to the MOT, took it for another MOT and it passed after fixing a few things. the car has been off the road for the last year so was good to have it back, drove it around abit since last wed only done 140mile in it as its my weekend car and there was no problems with it at al.

took it out thurs night to brim it with fuel ready to go to USC today still running sweat, got up at 4 to set off and drove through town(about a 2min drive) to my mates pub to pick him up, smelt oil on the when i was litteraly round the corner and when i pulled up clouds of white smoke out the exhaust and oil dripping out from engine, didnt even bother looking this mornin we just went in his car and on the way i thought it was turbo oil seals, but got home and had a look, it takes about 2mins for it to start smoking out the exhaust when you start it and the oil is dripping . . . sorry running out of inbetween the two cambelt covers, but this is as far as ive looked i aint taken anything to bits yet but now im thinking head gasket???

anyone confirm this of have any other suggestions??

help would be good

cheers guys

well finally managed to pull the car into the garage after painting the floor, took the top can cover off and the oil is leaking from the slave cam (the one without the pulley) so im guessing it is the cam seal. has anyone changed one of these before if so whats it like to change and any tips? and im guessing its a toyota only part?

but i carnt see why this would cause the amount of white smoke pouring out the exhaust?? or is this another problem?

help would be good guys

cheers daz

got stuck into it today and the oil was actuly just the rocker cover gasket, so fixed that and no oil leaking. then the only thing id changed before it all went abit tits up was id run a pipe from the pvc valve direct to my catch can and put a bolt in the inlet pipe, so i just put the vac pipe back to standard(from pvc to inlet) the revs dropped back to normal and it just sounded better. the smoke from the exhaust is abit wierd, on idle thers no smoke at all, give it a rev and a little bit come out, give it a good rev so bov sounds and it smokes for a few minutes and stops. took it for a gentle drive and theres no smoke till you go up a hill!?!?! then it smokes alot. took my turbo intake off and theres no play in the turbo.

so im abit stuck again now!!
