That lil blast of smoke is more than likely the small amount of oil that dripped down block when they changed the oil and filter and is burning off. I was the asst Regional Manager for q-Lube now jiffy lube for 6 yrs. It was very common to have some "Frame Drips" even after we wiped the excess off. I haven't checked the manual for exact viscosity and GL ratings for my subie yet, but redline is a good product, and in the 6 yrs I was slingin lube around, Subaru always had something different than the norm.
