What could this be?

Oil out of the exhaust:



The truck sat alot before I bought it. I noticed most of the oil after it had backfired a couple times before I adjusted the timing.

What should I check for?

BTW, it's a 400 with a block casting code of D1AE.

You might have a problem with a valve or a ring sticking or broken.
