Some "smoke" from the crankcase breather is normal, especially with a newly built engine. With the engine running, more visible fumes will usually be present at the road draft pipe at the rear of the engine, and when the engine is stopped, more will usually appear at the oil fill/breather. When the rings fully seat, it will probably diminish somewhat, but some visible crankcase vapor when the engine is running and for a while after it is stopped is normal.
