Hiya was it smoking because of the heat under the seat (IE radiated heat burning the interior) or was it exhaust escaping under there?
I've seen two Largos/Serenas where the exhaust gasket has given way at the rear end of the engine and started blowing, on my Serena fixed very easily with high temperature exhaust resin.

poss cam cover joint leaking,remove driver seat then centre console then engine covers to see if you can locate problem while engine is running but engine oil light will be on while running but dont worry its only because you have dissconneced the fan temp sensor on the engine cover
