Took car to shop and they ran diagnostic and was throwing code p0016. It is the oil fill baffle that is broke. Not touching any lifters or anything. Shop said that it needed replacing and would cost $616.00 to replace as it is made into the valve cover. Said if no tapping is heard am good to go for a while till I can save up enough money to get it done. But that is what was causing code light to come on. It's off for now and oil level is good. Thanks everyone for the help.

man, you have got to be able to find someone to change a valve cover for less than $600....

fwiw, I am not sure why an oil fill baffle being broke would cause white smoke or no oil to show up on the dipstick...might be true, but I am a little suspicious...
