    It could be a broken P/S pressure hose. One way to check is steer the
    wheel all the way to one end and see if there is any burst and smoke.

    It is probably your valve cover gasket. Mine leaks all the time but only smokes about 1/2 the time. Check your coolant level and power steering level to be sure they aren't leaking. If your valve cover is wet at all just be sure to check your engine oil level once every 2 weeks so it doesn't run low.
