The oil being pumped from the OMP system will not make it smoke.

WHERE is it smoking from is my question

You could be looking at bad seals in the turbo, or bad oil control rings in the motor if its coming out the exhaust

So, before we can aid, wheres the smoke coming from?

Good chance its the turbo needing a rebuild, look at the plugs and see if they are drenched with oil
