If I were you I would be checking the radiator for blockages! ;-)
White smoke from the exhaust and overheating would almost certainly mean a blown head gasket.
the head gasket has gone between a cylinder and a cooling channel so exhaust gasses can get in to the cooling system resulting in the boiling and water from the cooling system is getting into the cylinder resulting in the white smoke (actually steam) from the exhaust.
the exhaust manifold is a separate issue that can be replaced when the head gasket is repaired.
Ok that makes sense,after re checking all over again i found that my lower hose from radiator to engine is almost cold to the upper hose.could it be my water pump thats gone rather than my head gasket
the bottom hose would normally feel cooler than the top hose.
hot water from the engine goes through the top hose into the radiator.
it then cools as it flows through the radiator and the cooler water returns through the bottom hose.
the fact that the top hose is getting hot suggest that the water pump is circulating water ok.
i am afraid that everything still points to a blown head gasket rather than a water pump.
Paul is right. Try K
