no idle and oil leak problem?

Got the engine running after it would'nt start because someone removed the engine fuse, now at starts but it starts hard. It won't idle and runs rough above 1500rpms, anything below that for rpms and it feels like the darn thing is going to vibrate apart. At higher Rpms it acts like it is skipping. After running it for about 5 minutes blue smoke starts rolling out from under the hood on the passenger side and can't see where it is coming from. Have'nt done a compression check on it yet, thought maybe someone else might've had this problem. Any ideas anyone?

I personally would start with a compression check.

Could be a lot of things, start simple with a compression check, then move on to other things such as major vac leaks, messed up vac line routing, etc.
