[6pack] Blue Smoke on Startup

Hey all,

The 6 has started this annoying habit of making a nice sized belch of blue
smoke right as I start it up.
It only happens on startup and only if I have let the car sit for more than
a few minutes.

My guess is that I've got oil running down the valve stems around loose
valve guides.

Any other ideas?
