I don't believe it would be the head gasket but you probably are burning oil somewhere.

is it really white? cause sometimes black smoke can look white. Is it excessive white smoke? If it is your probably burning oil somewhere. Do a leak down or compression test.

 

<FONT COLOR="royalblue"> Problem Solved. It was the head gasket. Coolant was leaking into the combustion chamber. Thanks everybody! </FONT>

 

just thought i say something white smoke coming from the tail pipe is not oil burning it is coolant. oil that is burning is blue smoke
