Hmmm.... the vacuum sucked oil through the intake breather. It should burn off after a while, but it'll smoke for a while. Try just running is gently for a while until the oil gets burned off. It shouldn't hurt anything, but the O2 sensor MAY throw a code from the oil in the mix. I would not worry about it unless it won't clear after a few hours.
