If you have ever saw the color of the exhaust smoke from a two cycle motor, that's the color of a a four cycle with leaky valve seals or some other problem that causes it to burn oil. Its a blue-ish gray color.

Blue = Oil Burning

Black = Overly rich fuel mixture

White or grey = Coolant entering the combustion chamber
