around 5 to 10 minutes, smoke is thick, not sure about coolent level but i did smell it, and temp seemed normal.

So the weather's not cold enough to effect the coolant freezing.
Strange it would just happen after the oil change; did you jack up the car and possibly spill anti-freeze out the reservoir?
Doing a pressure test of the cylinders should reveal a leaky head gskt if thats what you have.
