My Audi A6 Estate is smoking from the exhaust and I noticed this morning oil dripping from the exhaust pipe when you started the car what could this be?

you could be leaking engine oil onto the exhaust or it could just be rusty water that is evaporating and causing the smoke.

If a 1999 voyager smokes when sitting in traffic and has started leaking oil what could be the problem?
Those are two different problems... If it's smoking in traffic, it could be from many things... If the smoke is coming from under the hood, you might have an oil leak that is dripping onto the exhaust. If it's smoking from the tailpipe, odds are, your rings / compression is gone and the oil is blowing by the rings and getting burned.

Could possibly be some tranny fluid that got on the exhaust and just needs to burn off or the tranny is leaking fluid onto the exhaust.
Are the high mileage motor oils worth the extra money?
Most people are saying that the "high mileage" oils are better for protecting gaskets and seals in your engine. However most recommend only using it if you've noticed soot or dark smoking coming out your exhaust. If the exhaust is clean and you're properly changing your oil regular oil should be fine.
How do you know if its a problem with the valve cover or if it actually the head gasket?
White smoke from the exhaust, loss of coolant with no apparent leak, oil level overfull, engine over heating, and a white foamy substance on the underside of the oil fill cap and /or dipstick all indicate a blown head gasket. A leaking valve cover will just cause a loss of oil and possible smoking from the oil dripping on the exhaust manifold.
