Replaced the valve cover gaskets today. Thought that might have fixed the smell of burning oil in the cabin and under the front driver side tire but of course my life sucks *** so it didn't. Still smell the burning oil and if you pop the hood you can see smoke coming up from under the engine on the drivers side, (between the valve right side of the engine and the coolant tank) much further down from where the valve cover gasket is. Any ideas as to where it could be leaking from cause at this point imm all out of ideas.

 

Your life sucks ***?

I lol'd.

 

Cam plugs or half moon seals

 

try replacing cabin filter too. i know it doesnt fix your oil problem, but it might help a little with the smell.

 

I know the "J" shape elbow from the blow to the pcv valve was cracked and brittle on my car, when I replaced it the oil smell was gone. Its a breather port in the block located next to the oil filter
