Question New and Need HELP!!

Hay guys, I just bought a 1992 Lexus ES 300 with 130,000 miles about 3 weeks ago and its great!!!! But I do have one problem though, recently when I start the car to go out, smoke comes from up under the hood like I’m burning oil, and when I put the A/C on it smell like burnt oil coming through the A/C!!!! I check the car to see if it has a leak and it seems to have a small oil leak. When I checked the oil level it seems to be fine. Can anyone please help me figure out what’s could be wrong with the car and how much it will cost to fix it? Thanx
