Burning oil smell. Recently have been getting a burning oil smell when driving. Just a little. when you get out of driver side get a small wiff of it. I have been under the truck cleaned everything with degreaser. And there is no sign of leaks. Any suggestions?

Sorry tried to delete this one but can figure out how to delete
Valve cover gaskets. They'll leak and you'll smell them before you see any residue.

Those are new less than 30k miles on them, replaced them and the radiator the week after i got the truck. After having a v8 4runner for 300k miles i just went theough and fixed all known issues. So i am stumped on this one. The power steering pump is weeping, so that is next on list of thing my mechanic will replace.
it’s hard to pinpoint what it could be when you stated you went through all the “known issues”.
For instance, I want to ask if you’ve also already replace the PCV valve, but sounds like you already did.
see where I’m going?
