Default Smoking bad (any hints)

i over heated the motor really bad once and drove it like that for like 10 miles
the needle wasw past H
the bottom rad hose came off the block
i already replaced the head gasket,deck milled the head, and replaced the water pump
im starting to wonder if i warped the cylinder wall and or if a maybe cracked a piston ring
let me know if anyone has had this happen to them
thanxs
and save all ur cocky comments i needed to get it home i wasnt leaving it on the side of the highway

oil would produce blue smoke, sounds like your running rich

white-coolant in cylinder(s)

blue-oil in cylinders

black-too much fuel
