Default Need Cruze help

I recently did an oil change and had it checked with no leaks or anything. About a week later I have white smoke coming from under the hood and a burning smell. There's a couple of small oil drips on the ground but nothing else. I can't find the leak though. Had anyone else had this problem, if so what is or was it?

Turbo or non turbo? The non turbo's oil filter is located right beside the down pipe and oil sometimes gets on it but burns off fairly quickly. Have you had your recall done to prevent oil from getting on the hot skid plate?

Also, check your coolant level, waterpumps are common to go on cruzes.
