Well just get into your engine and check all your gaskets and hoses. Never know could just be a cracked or leaky hose spilling oil into a heat source sending the smoke out your exhaust. Sometimes its the simple over looked stuff that ends up being the solution. Try and look at things objectivly and calmly. Or worst case you blew something out and your fucked but who knows.

Could be your valve seals. i had a LeBaron and if it sat and idle like at a light or just in drive thru it would smoke and it was the valve seals. they do get worn. kind of a hell of a job just to check if its that but i would try other things first. dont really know what but someone could maybe help you. i just wanted to say that about the valve seals

i wouldn't be too quick to say your oil pump cause if it went you wouldn't be going anywhere for 30 mins. Check your filler tube. all the way at the bottom.
