It could also be the O ring on the crank, behind the primarily gears, especially since you replaced the seals recently

Just read the thread on the end cap and o rings for the oil pump rebuild and how possibly could be that. Heres a clue for the experts that may be able to help diagnos wether its that or crank seal. Its not constant. If I hols at 5000 rpm it ( the right cylinder only) smokes for 5 seconds then clears, then smokes again, so its intermittant smoking. I think this leans me towards the oil pump o rings. Can the experts shed a lil light or speculation. Always smokes on first start up.
