White Smoke Coming From Exhaust

OK- looking for some help from the car guys around here.

I have a 2005 Subaru Impreza WRX. A friend was following me yesterday, and noticed that my car was putting out a small amount of blue/greyish smoke from the exhaust under hard acceleration. Today when I started it up. It was putting out a small amount of smoke while it was warming up. Once it warmed up the smoke stopped.

I know the car has a valve cover gasket leaking. And it smells like the car is running rich. Performance wise the car runs great. Turbo spools up just fine, and doesn't seem to have lost any power. Yesterday after around a hour and a half drive, I shut the car off, went inside the store, and when I came back out- the car was acting like it wanted to turn over but it wouldn't fire. Eventually it did start up.

Any input appreciated.

Rings, valve seals, head gasket on some vehicles. All are fairly major most of the time

If it's the turbo I would think the air hose to the intercooler would be very oily internally. Like oil running out of it.

Man I work on a Impreza for a guy. It's actually the year prior to the model change to the wrx, iirc. I've done tons of upgrades to it. Cool cool car.

I've had 3 turbos go on me, every time I saw oil in the down pipe, upstream of the turbo was clean. The only way I see oil getting into the intake side is a bad PVC system (this very well could be the problem here).

Not really, it will only loose boost when its really on the way out. The turbo seals will weep for a long time until they let go. He needs to pull both the DP and turbo to inter cooler pipe. That should tell him where the oil is and is not coming from.

131k on the car. Believed to be the original turbo. So it wouldn't surprise me if it's starting to go bad.
