It may be diesel fuel and not oil. My truck was doing it and the cure was to remove the injectors and replace the copper washers/gaskets on the tips of the injectors.

Given low miles, it is doubtful, but it could also be valve stem seals.

I have checked copper washers and they are good and this truck does not idle muck at all is this a possible sign of a blown head gasket?
