White smoke out of the tailpipe is an indication of coolant burning in the cylinders-you sure its not blue mix w/white an dose it disappear when the engine is at operating temperature

To find out if its the headgasket have it chemically tested could also be the valve seals/guides/stems if its blue in color-
