Exclamation 2001 S4 smoke coming from engine?

2001 S4 Tip. 2.7 I am having occasional smoke from engine bay. Early morning starts produce the most. But def a little bit still coming after that burns up during driving. I just had both VCG replaced. Still producing smoke but not as bad. I think it could be The cam plugs, How do I Access those. I have 2 EGR valves due to TIp.

If the valve cover gaskets were done they should also have replaced both cam plugs & both cam tensioner gaskets. They all get leaky about the same time.

Fuckk. The only thing that was replaced was VCG. Can I still acess those seal and Plugs w/ Re doing the VCG? I am positive its coming from the back part of the engine. Thus being the hockey puck plugs.
