Cool smoke coming from oil cap, help

hello I have a 03 impala and every time I try to start it up, its a rough start except mornings. My check engine light is on and every once in a while I start it up white burning smoke comes from under the hood. I take off the oil cap and smokes comes out. Maybe an oil leak?

Sounds like a PCV failure
