Saw white smoke from under my hood, and I realized I was burning oil. Over the weekend I did an oil change and got a new oil filter on. Before the oil change I was leaking oil horribly, and found it was coming from my filter. This time, there isn't a puddle of oil or anything leaking out noticable, but I know I am still leaking it from somewhere. Any ideas on where it could be leaking from? The smoke is coming from the alternator/oil filter area obviously. I am at my campus about 5 miles away from my home. Would it be ok to drive home? If so, what should I check when or before I get there?
I know that white smoke means burning coolant...but I'm 95% sure Im burning oil
