if you got it shut off in 10 seconds then you most likley didnt hurt the motor. i have seen small briggs motors run for a while with no oil in them. the smoke you seen was the motor burning oil. like in was said above pull the air filter you likley got oil in the carb and what not so it will smoke when you start it up.

Thanks all you all!
The air cleaner was saturated with oil, and there was a tablespoon in the air cleaner housing.
The plug was remarkably clean. Oil level was down some (duh).
I changed the oil, cleaned the air filter housing and replaced the filter, cleaned and gapped the plug, and pulled the starter cord several times with the plug out.
I replaced the plug and she started right up. Smoked a bit until warmed up. Thanks all for the advice!
