Smoking, but not Burning, the Engine that is...

I recently have become the owner of my first Mitsubishi and it is a 1999 Montero Sport Limited 4x4 Upon initial inspection all seemed fine, after a few miles she started smoking, enough for me to be concerned-I am a self taught grease monkey with a father who is a Retired Mechanic in the CA Army National Guard, he also had me fix my own vehiintakecles.in the field during the six years we served in the same unit-DELTA 144 FA, different jobs, but he out ranked me... I was told it was anything from head, exhaust, intake gaskets to cracked block, head, radiator, and water pump., prices ranging from $75 upton $2500.. upon investigation I come to learn that the smoke was an oil leak from the rear of the block by the firewall, which is a very common issue called aRing "Rear Cam Plug O-Ring", it took some time to diagnose, assess, and do the repair for a total cost of about $5.00 for pair O-Rings and cost of oil change kit, she is now humming abstaining for some upgrades. I welcoming ideas or suggestions.

Respectfully,
