Oil burning and Smoke is back after Valve Guide Seal replacement

About 2,000 miles ago I took my 2013 X5 Xdrive50i (N63) in to the dealer to have the Valve Guide Seals replaced under the class action warranty repair. Job was done and I picked up the car and all seemed well for about 2,000 miles. Today however, the dreaded oil smoking at extended idle returned. I tapped the throttle and a huge puff of blue smoke filled my surroundings. Did it a couple of times more and same thing. Smoke seems to go away or isn't noticeable while driving but after extended idle it is there and it's definitely OIL.

So what gives? Apparently the dealer replaced my valve guide seals?
