Weird issue upon start-up

Went to the mall..
Came back in less than 30ish minutes (car still warm)

I go to start my car and notice a light white smoke.. didnt think too much.. it was roughly 55degrees in phx.. I lightly step on the gas, and a BUNCH of white smoke pours out the exhaust... im like wtf..? It only poured out AS i hit the gas.. Not at idle or after.. (other than obvious condensation) It progressively starts dying down... I drive two mins, restart car, try again, and it starts doing it less n less til there was practically nothing.... odd

I go home take a closer look at the engine and everything I could.. All I could find was this


Slight moisture in between the block/head Only between port 2-3 in the intake mani..

Everywhere else that I could see was dry as can be (both exh and intake side)


Ive not been able to duplicate this..
On a side note, I did an oil change roughly 3 weeks ago..

Seems that Im already 3/4qt low as well..

Ideas?

Your turbo seals might be on their way out and if your burning alot of oil it can be a sign of that as well
