Default 2001 camry v-6 3.0 litre

I have a 2001 camry, v-6 3.0 litre. When I first start it after sitting for a while I get a cloud of gray smoke from exhaust. The smoke smells like exhaust not burnt oil and clears after a few minutes. Any possible causes?

Worn valve stem seals can cause oil smoke at cold start up, a leaking injector unburned gasoline smoke.
