Default Smoke when first starting '99 5sfe

I've recently noticed that when I start my 4cl Camry, a bunch of smoke comes from the exhaust, and continues for about 10 or so seconds after starting. The car still runs fine, so I'm not quite sure what is wrong. Anyone have any ideas?

If white smoke when engine cold could be the valve stem seals.

Determine if the smoke smells like oil, gas or has a sweet smell.
