Got back into my car after the gym today and when i started the engine up there was a clunking noise when the engine is on automatic choke and when lightly revving it the clunking gets faster with the revs,drove home and it seems to have stopped but it is burning oil and has been for a while when turning the engine over it puffs out a bit of blue smoke not sure if this has anything to do with the clunking noise but the engine does have oil in.
Any ideas what it may be?

Me and a mate had a quick look today and the noise seems to be coming from the power steering pump.
How much will i be expected to pay for a new power streering pump?
