One of the cylinder heads is leaking .Cyl heads will need to be removed and checked for cracks. If the cylinder heads are not cracked and not warped the engine can be assembled with new parts. Wish you luck
and let me know what all happened.
Smoke of this sort is usually caused by the engine burning coolant, and can be the result of a blown head gasket or a damaged cylinder head, or a cracked engine block, which requires a new engine or an engine rebuild.
A repair shop NEAR you. If it is smoking and has overheated you HAVE a damaged engine. The more it is driven the worse it will be. Really you should probably get it towed to a shop. Most repair shops can work on it, all of them are going to make some $ off this, as probably minimally a blown head gasket, but likely rod or piston damage. Make sure the coolant is full before you try and drive it anywhere. treat it gently... maybe it will get to the shop under it's own steam if it is close. The only next step is engine seizure... and new engine time. (rebuilt dropped in might be $2000 if you're super lucky)
