Smile Problems after cam swap

Everyone, I just had a dod/afm delete on a 2010 Camaro. I installed a tsp cam, lifters, valve seals, springs, oil pump, had the heads milled . the problem I'm having is an oil leak on the passenger side of the motor at high rpm. Normal driving no leak noted or smelled. Under WOT you can see smoke in the car and coming out from under the car and onto the header. Valve covers were pulled and gaskets changed. Still having issues with oil leak. Please help
ps: plugs are new and still look new , no oil on them.

Any suggestions?
