If its smoking on full throttle its probably the piston rings, on tickover or light throttle its probably the valve stem oil seals

Under heavy vacuum the stem seals will leak oil most (on rngine overun)
Also, if you leave the car overnight, then start it up in the morning. Oil drains into the cylinders overnight, and then gets burnt as soon as you turn it over.
