Exclamation 06' modest mods Major Smoke..

Here is the recent updates to my 06' Coupe with 122,000 miles or 196,000 kms.

Problem is when I get it revving and pass, or just step on it in general you can immediately smell like a burnt plastic and well the video hopefully will help some of the more expereienced owners to possibly help me figure out the issue as I'm pretty much spent on it at this point.. ** New valve cover gasket was just installed on the right side only. There are multiple drip spots on the pavement where I park just about the entire length of the car? Oil level seems good? Temp is fine, no lag in power - just smell and burning smoke I assume from hitting the hot exhaust but where from!?

Couldn't upload for some reason but here is the link to view:

Typically cars of this age have piston ring wear and oil pressure issues because of old gaskets. Do you have white/blue smoke out the exhaust.

You're definitely oiling the car underneath. Get an inspection mirror and flashlight and find out what's leaking. It might not be engine oil, could be transmission, power steering, automatic transmission fluid, etc. So look everywhere.

With that much oil on everything under the car it's going to be a pretty significant leak which is usually easy to find with a good mirror and flashlight.
