Default smoking!!!

Hey, After my car warms up it starts blowing blue smoke out the exhaust.. i checked where the spark plug wires go and made sure there was no oil in the spark plugs. i also had a cel for the egr valve. i replaced the egr valve and still doing it. no cel but still smoke! any suggestions?

Clean out your intake manifold. Is it dohc or sohc? Could be bad valve seals or bad piston rings.
