Thread: 110 blowing white smoke

Looks to be coming from the oil catch can / crankcase breather. There’s also oil in this general area and is dripping down the inside of the guard and onto the ground.
Water temp is at about 75 and exhaust gas temp sits at about 350 when cruising.

Any ideas ? First though is that this obviously isn’t good and could be the end of the engine

White? Usually brake fluid or auto trans oil burns white. Anything like that in the vicinity?

White / grey but definitely light coloured

It’s used a little bit (2-3 caps) of dot 4 in the clutch filler too
