ya can get thick white smoke from the sump, if the gasses from the oil in the sump are gettin past the rings this can happen, check your cam cover breather pipes if they are steaming like a kettle then summit is up, did the car overheat when the gasket went origanally, could be a craked/warped head also | |

Had this on my rover k series lump when the head lunched itself... it does pour out, if your coolent is level and doesnt vanish then go on a run to dry it out:thumbs: | |

If its happening when the car has been sitting like overnight it will just be condensation thats built up in the exhaust. | |

if its bluey/white could be the head but if its pure white then yeah it'll be coolant system/radiator etc | |
