Well if there were going to be a lot of oil over near the BOV would be the most likely place. Directly next to manifolds is the Oil Metering Pump. This could have sprung a leak anywhere and with the pressure this thing sees it could be all the way to the front of the engine bay.
The PCV is also in that area. I suggest you refer to the 2nd generation FAQ for a link to the factory service manual. Download the segments covering this subject and use them to help hunt down your leak. Since you said smoke, I would assume that it came from the OMP and is falling onto the exhaust manifold and burning. Also make sure your Pulsation Dampener has been replaced (not related, but you don't want your FC to burn to the ground.)
If you need help finding anything further just ask.

Its an s5 the PD is intergrated into the fuel rail, unlike the s4 which is a banjo bolt.... and if the oil seals where gone you wouldnt se oil burning on the manifold..... so like aussie said im sure its a leak on one of your mop lines....
