Blue/Grey/Smoke

Thanks so much for having me...

So I flipped my Diesel 4Runner recently. It was a clean flip, no impact damage to engine as I landed on my Roof.

Now I have a bluish smoke coming out of exhaust pipe.

I know I need to take it in the shop, but i'd like to be more informed before I do.

I think it's an injector problem/dirty injector but search results seem to indicate oil is being burnt.

What's the first step? Clean injector, clean carbon build up?  or piston seals/engine head seal rings replaced? know what I mean?

Easiest answer is that oil got into your exhaust and its getting burned in there causing smoke.  Take exhaust headers off and run engine..if it smokes from the engine - but if there is no smoke from engine...then its in the exhaust system probably trapped in the muffler.
