Smoking on Right Side

[Gerard]

Could be dripping onto the exhaust. I send up large amount of white smoke from my mk1 golf as oil and fuel drip out of the busted carb airbox right onto exhaust and inlet manifolds. 

Sometimes it is possible to determine what fluid it is based on the smell by taking a small sample of each and dripping it onto a hot manifold. Sometimes they all smell the same though.

I'm getting smoke with burning oily smell from the right lower part of motor
compartment, I've been told by mechanic that he has to replace banjo bolt on
steering rack for the high pressure hose coming from pump because there is a
leak of hydraulic oil, he located leak while I was turning back and forth
from extreme right and then 40 degrees left. I wonder if there is a
connection between smoke with burning oily smell on ride side and leak. I
think it is a 19mm banjo bolt fro high pressure hose.
