22 at idle & it jumps up when you goose it you're ok. I'd suspect a leaking valley pan intake gasket with a slight leak on the drivers side.

A bent pushrod would only disable one cyl's power output. either the valve stems seals are bad(not likely as this eng is fresh), a bad head gasket letting oil thats going up to the valvetrain from the cam journal leak over to a cyl(extremely unlikely) or it's the tin valley pan gasket(very likely) especially w the amt of smoke & w it smoking on one bank. People install valley pans dry & have no issues but I believe the tin is not flexible enough to seal vacuum & I use permatex #2, the thick brown goo in a toothpaste tube a light EVEN coat on each side of the tin on the port openings.

ok -- but would a bent push rod cause this smoke-?
If you have a misfiring cylinder [fouled spark plug, bent pushrod, ect.] that WOULD cause blue smoke out one tailpipe. Does the engine have a miss?

How could oil be burned in a cyl that is not firing?
