Regarding your white smoke -I agree you would appear to have defiantly blown the head gasket. One other problem you may have caused yourself by starting & trying to start the car with water in the cylinders is -damage the starter motor / mountings. When the gasket went on my 1988 900i I cracked the starter motor mounting brackets turning it over. In the UK I paid £325 for a gasket to be replaced. Good luck with yours. Dave
