Default b16 help

i think i might have a blown head gasket but im not sure. the head is leaking oil like crazy. it comes out slow but steadily and ALL of it comes out. right under the vtec solenoid oil is just flowing out steadily. it doesnt look like theres any coolant in the mix and the car doesnt sound like its got a BHG but it is pumping alittle bit of smoke out of the exhaust. i dont know if thats just because its cold and there are a bunch of leaks or what. thanks for the help

Could be a few things.

Could be the gasket around the vtec, could be the o ring inside the distributor, and it could be the cam seal. If its coming up higher then the head/block then its not the head gasket.
