What in BH does that mean??
A partially blown gasket doesn't necessarily blow white smoke, meaning burning coolant. Sometimes the gasket can go such that oil just gets into a coolant channel first. No way to know if the head is warped until it comes off to replace the head gasket. Unlike that advice from Chas H, the longer you wait and drive it, the more likely
you will warp the head. I say, park it and wait until you can fix it. Check the DIY article for head gasket replacement, and use the search field to find threads about what you, or a mechanic, need to do.
