[J. Jonik]

  Not always, but the car does kick out smoke on starting once in a while....but gray, not black smoke.

  I would think if you had a leaky injector for gas to get in the oil the 
intake valve on that cylinder would need to be open since the injectors are 
right on the heads. I can't say how much fuel would leak out until the 
syslem pressure dropped low enough.

 The fuel could sit long enough to leak past the rings yet if this were the 
case on start up you would see a cloud of black smoke out the exhaust from 
what ever fuel still in that cylinder.
