Valve seal problems

My 2006 F150 with the 4.6 W has started to smoak some times when cranked. i have 72K on same and have used Moble 1 10-30 senthetic.
noticed when you run the truck up around 65 to 70 on the highway when you park fore a while it will smoak when you first crank it. wondering what is the going rate fore pulling the heads and having them reworked. found out today that it takes a specal tool to index the cams. any info app.
