White smoke isn't oil it's coolant. Oil usually burns more bluish. Check your oil levels and coolant levels to see which one your really burning. If it's oil do a compression test and leak down test. If compression is off +/-20 PSI on one cylinder then your rings are bad. If not your problem could be in the head.
