Starting the Evo after it sits for a day or 2

Curious if anyone smells some burnt oil when they first start there car? My car is on E85 and if it sits for a day or 2 i smell some burt oil. It doesnt blow smoke doesnt leak oil and my a/f is perfect. Could this be because of E85, or because maybe in my tune the start up is really rich? Any input would be great thanks!

It is possible you may have spilled some oil in the engine bay when you were add or changing your oil?
