I can and smell that I'm burning oil but I can't figure out where it's occuring at. Any suggestions for where I should start looking? If there's more info needed to help identify the problem let me know and I'll answer as best I can. Thanks in advance for the help!

Usually if you smell it, its the valve cover leaking onto the exhaust manifold. Look all around the valve cover for moist oil.

It could also be the oil filter mounting base gasket leaking and dripping on the exhaust pipe.
