When I start the car smoke billows out frm under a grey silver piece connecting to the motor. It smokes for about 5-10 mins then goes away and runs fine. Not sure what the problem is, please help me.

@iancarvaho. Yes sounds abt right lol it comes frm the front of the engine nd it is the exhaust pipe. Maybe manifold? No loud noise yet jus smoke when I start then it goes away after 5 mins. It is a 93 Camry 4 banger, u can see the silver piece when u google it and if u do the smoke comes out from underneath it..

The exhaust manifolds are known to crack. If you remove the heat shield, you should be able to see what is wrong under it.
