Default Bluish smoke on cold starts??

My 2002SC430, 64K miles, emits some bluish smoke on cold starts. It has always been maintained by the Lexus dealer, runs perfectly, and recently passed a smog test. I have an appointment at the dealer in a week, but this seems like an uncommon problem in this engine.

Have any of you had this issue, and what should I expect from the dealer? Of course, the warranty has expired. Does Lexus ever take care of problems like this even tho the warranty has expired?

Thanks for any info you can provide.
