Valve stem seals?

Used to get it on some Ford engiones. After a few days of misuse oil would pool in the top of the piston. Once the engine was up and running it'd go away, start it the following morning, maybe a tiny puff. Leave it a week and fogscreen for a few seconds.

I must confess the the activities of the UK governments for the past couple of years have been watched with frank admiration and amazement by Lord Vetinari. Outright theft as a policy had never occured to him.
