light Smoke coming from right side of engine in 2012 C63

hey guys - i was driving my car today and when i stopped on a red light i noticed a bit of of light smoke coming from the hood, when i got home i opened the trunk and noticed it coming from the right side of the engine. before taking it to any mechanic and getting possibly overcharged for something that could potentially be small, i wanted to get your guys input on this. the smoke could be smelled while driving esp if the air conditioning is on, i have provided a video for you to look at, the smoke could get a bit heavier than what you see in the video but this is basically the common case here, any feedback is highly appreciated, thank you so much.

I am confused to how your opened your trunk and found your engine in there

My guess is valve cover gasket leaking, can you get a camera in there to see if there is any oil on the exhaust manifold, might have to pull the airbox to really see what is going on.

How many miles?
