So we are now 1200 dollars in and Puff the Magic dragon still laughs in my face. My timing belts and water pump needed to be replaced as well as a tune up and new spark plugs. The smoke is now being caused by the rear main transmission seal which is slightly leaking but costs to much to fix at the moment.

I can deff smell burning oil...and know anyone who can diagnose?

The engine. so not an oil pan could cause a minor leak?

So I have had my outback wagon (1998) since 09. before that it was my grandfathers I LOVE my car and am trying to hang onto it but recently especially in the mornings or if it is hot out huge tuffs of white smoke exhale from the engine. Stupidly I went to a non Subaru special mechanic and spent 350 on a oil gasket.....long story short Puff the magic dragon lives on. Is the oil pan the problem or the serpator? if it is the oil pan does anyone have a link to a reasonable one? Thank you!
