Blue Smoke what cause it

I have a 2006 F350 6.0L And I notice blue smoke from the tail pipe when it is cold. I was wondering what may cause this besides a worn engine.

Thanks Mark

Yes burning oil is blue smoke. But when the truck is cold it takes the injectors a minute or two to get warmed up, sometimes resulting in a little smoke.

In your other thread you said its when its' -3C outside and the truck is at high idle (1.2k rpms). You sure it's not just regular white smoke/ vapor from it being cold?
