Hi there,
Is it smoke or steam? If it's smoke, where is it smoking from? I'd look to see if it's the rocker cover or crank weeping oil onto the exhaust manifold as when you drive it every day it burns off quickly. But when left standing it can accumulate enough to make smoke for a while. putting water on it would cool down the manifold stopping the smoke. Could be wrong but it's a common problem.
Good luck with the giving up smoking
