The white smoke....without looking at it...a guess is a blown head gasket? Anti freeze enters the cylinders through a leak from the coolant passage to the intake passage or the cylinder bore, (head to block seal).

White smoke is usually water vapor, black smoke is unburned fuel, blueish smoke is oil. My general rule of thumb. Pro's probably have better explaination.
