Could be a couple things. Oil control o-rings inside the engine "hard fix", or your turbos are just plain worn out.

I overfilled with oil once (doh...) and I got plumes of oil smoke and yucky black oily carbon build up on the rear bumper near the exhaust outlet, same sort of symptoms.

Did you by any chance do an oil change recently? :p
