The real truth is that he added anti freeze coolant instead of oil thinking it was the radiator and that is why it smokes. Its okay dude....we all make mistakes. Just remember to let the engine cool off before you open that cap or you can really get burnt.

Alternative explanation to an oil overfill is blown head gasket. Hopefully it is an oil overfill.
