Leaking valve stem seal

Topic starter

I have a 2001 Toyota Avalon with 235,000 miles. I recently replaced the valve cover gaskets. I just noticed a cloud of smoke come out of the tail pipe when I started it up. A mechanic friend told me it was most likely a leaking valve stem seal. Would ATP AT205 Re-Seal help this situation?

it's not a big deal as long as the smoke stops after a while.
