Smoke and oil
After my last oil change - it seems that my 99 coupe is leaking oil, and smoke appears from what seems to be the top of the engine.
I have an appointment with the dealer on Monday; dealer suggest taking it back to the place I got my oil change last - thinking it may just be an oil filter not installed tightly.
Any thoughts on what the problem may be? what to expect?

possible the oil filter isnt installed tight enough. if nothing else has changed since the oil change and it started immediately after the change--that would be my first thing to try.
