Sam, oil in the pipework leading to/from the I/C is normal. Its called blow-by.
The best way to resolve this is to fit an oil catch tank.
Do you have any cats in your exhaust?
The puff of black smoke out the back could just be excess fuel being dumped, close to getting flames out the back if you dont.

Look down the drivers side of the engine for a big silver block just past the teering column, and then under the middle of the car for another big silver box.
If you have either of these you\'ve got some cats in the way. Speak to one of the vets on here and have them put down. ;)
