I have seen loose bolts all over the Ford box engines. What fluid is coming up short after you drive the car?
Lets not forget that some NEW engines will tend to smoke at times till the rings seat. Pull the plugs and read them. If they all show clean it may just be that you need to run it till the rings set. If you get a dirty one you may have a problem in that cylinder.
