Oil mixed with the refrigerant would have caused the 'smoke',particularly if it was from the condenser,or the high side of the system as we call it.Nothing to worry about,apart from the oil covering everything it lands on,some types take paint off like brake fluid

I have seen a system that contained over 80kg of refrigerant blow the glass out of a sight glass,now that created some smoke,and noise.

And created another hole in the ozone layer...
