Smoke from under car...

I had to move the FF in the driveway earlier. After a minute or so of switching off the engine (which only ran for a minute) my toddler noticed there was smoke coming out from behind the OSF wheel. The engine idles normally, the fumes alway smell sweet but there's no smoke from the exhaust. I'm going to presume and hope that it's just the preheater, and that they all do this?

Any ideas?

Fuel burning heater I'd guess at. At least yours works!

Sounds like the FBH and be aware with a tiny amount of breeze the smoke can come from anywhere!
