Smoke is coming out of dipstick tube, after motor oil change

Hello there,
Car Model: 2000 Oldsmobile Bravada 4WD 4.3
What I did: Changed the motor oil and oil filter
oil changed: Royal Purple 5W-30D synthetic (used 5 quarts)
additives: AutoRx (1 bottle) Drove about 1300 miles
oil filter: Mobil 1

previous oil: Valvoline DuraBlend 1/2 synthetic
previous filter: Vavoline

problem: I changed the motor oil and oil filter this morning
then drove to work, when i got to work i checked the
oil level, the oil level is fine, maybe a little 2 much.
Then i saw smoke coming out of the dipstick tube.
Is this normal or am i screwed. The oil temp is 40 when
the car is idle, when it is moving its around 50ish or 60.

Things i learned: The oil filter can not be twisted off with ease
Buy a new bolt when changing any oil, mines
was totally striped.
-foon
p.s Have a great day..everyday!
Thanks for the help, it seems like every post i'd ever made
was to ask for help, thanks everyone.
