Also I had clear lines on for the time being, and in the lines it would look like water condensation kinda.

Doesn't sound good. You should have no smoke/fuel vapor coming out of the valve cover ports. That's called blow by, the cause is piston/piston ring damage. The remedy is reconditioning the bottom end. I recommend you do a compression and leak down test. If you can gain access to one, a mechanics pin cam inside each cylinder through the spark plug hole will usually show you everything you want to know. Look for scored cylinder walls, if you find signs of this you likely dont need to worry about the comp/leak test.
