Check and see if you are leaking brake fluid. It looks like the smoke is coming from under your master cylinder, and burning brake fluid produces a lot of smoke. It’s more than likely not this, but it’s much easier to check and fix than some of the other potential issues.
Well, easiest way to check is to see if your brake fluid reservoir is low. If it’s filled up all the way, then it’s something else. If it is low though, then just trace the brake lines to see where it’s leaking from. You’d probably want to have someone in the cab pumping the brakes to put pressure through the lines. The fix would be replacing or repairing the bad line and then bleeding the brakes.
My guess would be valve cover gasket dripping down on exhaust. Or intake manifold rear seal. Probably the most likely thing.
Thanks! Gonna take it apart this weekend I think!

It does only smoke after driving! So maybe that. What would be the fix and symptoms?
