Puff of White Smoke between 1-2 shift

I have been noticing a big puff of white smoke after a wot 1-2 shift is this the good old PVC oil soaked intercooler syndrome? My truck has 33,000 miles its a 01 it runs flawlessly idles smooth and all.Very mildly modded with a 3#er, Preditor tuned by RWTD, NGK TR6 plugs and a 160 thermostat.What do you guys think? No smoke at start up at all.I have seen the smoke before but I thought it was just tire smoke and my mother in Law said she saw white smoke a couple weeks ago when I passed them with my brother in law riding shot gun screeming like a school girl.I run Royal Purple 5w-30 oil and the oil level stays on the full mark.Torque reduction is turned off and it shifts at 5400rpm.I do not have any oil in the throttle body but found some in the tube going to the Idle valve.What do you guys think.
Thanks
jeff

I'm intersted as well.

During my dyno run, I think it iwas the last one, you can see a puff of white smoke coming out of the exhaust Just before the end of the run.

6 minutes and 15-17 seconds into the video, you can see the puff of something from the exhaust.
