blue smoke at startup
Heya guys,
I've recently dropped pretty penny to do rear main seal and both valve gaskets due to multiple oil/coolant leaks. So it stopped leaking but now, from time to time, I get a cloud of blue smoke at startup after car sits overnight. I've searched the forums and found probable causes to be some seals leaking. However, I don't see any leaks underneath, I actually had them fixed just a week ago. Besides, I didn't notice any blue smoke before I had rear main/valve gaskets done. Is it possible that mechanic screwed up something? Thanks for any suggestions.

oh, and I forgot to add, the car drives pretty well, although it does have pretty rough idle with somewhat variable rpm (normally about 600-700 but I got an impression that it jumps up and down for no apparent reason). Otherwise, no complaints.
