Default White Smoke from Valve Cover

I recently replaced and primed a new oil pump, I saw the oil on the rockers. I took it for a short drive around the neighborhood and when I parked it, I smelled something. I removed the oil fill cap and some white smoke came out. After the drive, I didn’t see oil on the rockers even though I did when I primed it. What does that mean? Could it be smoking because my cooling system needs work too? As for a cracked head, I’m not losing coolant and I can’t see a crack where it’s usually said to be.

Anything helps. My daily broke down and I’m trying to get my Jeep up until I find a new car.
