If you don't have any more smoke coming off the passenger side of the engine, it was the oil that was spilt on the exhaust. If it is leaking, you'll know !!!
These valve cover gaskets are famous for folding out of place in the rear by the cam where it's hard to see and it creates a really bad leak, so just watch your oil level, and check the back of the engine for any leaks. I use a dentist type mirror that has a light built in.
Other than that, your're GTG.
