I got a question, I am getting a weird whistle coming from somewhere when i floor the gas pedal, it sounds like its coming out of the exhaust pipe, but there is no hole there, and its not a rumble, someone told me to look in the oil pan, but i have no way of lifting the car up...this is possible considering that I'm missing oil once in a while....so quite possibly...lemme know if you have any ideas of what it can be..

blue smoke always is burning oil.
valve seals?? nothing you can do about it really
unless you want to rebuild your motor.

OR you can replace the valve seals in the head

Smoke on startup usually indicates valve seals. I believe that they can be replaced without removing the head
