Smoke/vapour coming from the back of the engine

Hi guys,

 

Hoping I got the right area for this.

 

Got my 370 yesterday and have been loving every minute of driving her.

 

Just come back from a long drive though and I'm a little worried. Was just about to lock up and noticed a light amount of smoke/vapour coming from the top of the bonnet. Opened it up and it seems to be coming from the back of the engine. Definitely has a mechanically smell (can you tell I'm not a mechanic?  :D ), but everything seemed normal when I was driving her.

 

Here's a short video I was able to capture: https://mega.nz/#!VQ...V-J-IyRM07pSm0Q

 

I'm not sure whether this could just be engine bay dressing burning off, oil dripping onto something hot, or something else.

 

Only other thing I've noticed (unrelated) is a clunk sound when I'm slowing to a stop, sounds like it's coming from the rear. Not sure if this is just a characteristic of the auto box. Other than that she's fantastic  :wub:

 

Anyway, fingers crossed it's nothing major!

 

Any light you guys can shed on this would be gratefully received  :D

 

Thanks all!
