Now you are adding that it's white smoke so it's likely not oil if you are correct. Thanks for adding one fact per day. By the end of next week, perhaps someone can help you.
perhaps (white smoke you say) antifreeze is leaking into the combustion... Head gasket most likely
cracked head warped head bad head gasket
Had any overheats lately? Was that an aluminum head on a cast block?
Sleep on. He's provided all the info he can this week. Next week we may learn the mileage is 27,000, but the odometer never worked. His sister rebuilt the engine 7 years ago and had one big gasket with three large holes and some smaller ones left over. Stay tuned.
