I have had pretty much the same "leak" you describe and it was due to a leaking valve cover gasket. As for the cloud of smoke, if it was coolant, you'd see your coolant level going down. Probably a blown plenum gasket, or leaking intake manifold gasket(i've had that happen as well) But if you plan on putting the supercharger on, it wouldn't be a bad idea to pull the heads and replace the head gaskets while you are at it. How many miles on the engine?

are you sure it's coming from above the oil filter? mine has a rear main that leaks on occasion, it coats the engine from above the oil filter down. The best way to determine is to replace the filter, degrease the whole thing, then monitor it.

It could also be rear main seal, but not very likely. |

my mom followed behind me going to the mall today and she said there was smoke coming out the back constantly so i guess its the stuff burning but sometimes it just pours out and i can see a huge ass cloud of it.

I would start where Mopar318 suggested. Check the oil pressure sending unit, check the distributor too. If the o-ring is destroyed, it will leak like a sumbitch.
