    White smoke is coolant burning in the combustion chamber as you already guess it is most likely a head gasket. The motor does not need to be removed to repair it. Pull your spark plugs out and take a look at them, the spark plug that is exceptionally clean (steam cleaned) will be the cylinder with the bad head gasket.

    Good luck

    If you remove the spark plugs and just turn the key over you will see coolant coming from the plug with the bad head gasket.
    Even if you’re on the right track, you’ll get run over if you just sit there.

    I would do both. Usually have a miss cold when getting coolant in cylinder. I fire up an engine and run for about 20 seconds then shut down. Then feel the exhaust near the head Carefully! The cold one is dead.
