Could this be a blown head gasket? (long)

Ok guys I need your help again. Yesterday it was really cold here in NJ, I let my 9KT warm up enough to get some heat inside (maybe 10 mins)then off I went. Only got 2 blocks from my house and ran up next to a 900T at the light, light turns grn and were off at full throttle about 1/4 mile up the road I see smoke (from under the hood) and smell anifreeze thought it was a hose, but checked this morning and I can see a stream of anifreeze coming from under the exhaust manifold at idle I don't see anything, but when I tack it up to about 2k then look I can see the thin stream coming from the right side (standing in front)under the manifold.
I don't see any white smoke coming from the exhaust or any anifreeze in the oil, if this is the head gasket is it a costly repair? it is just too cold for me to try this out in the open. Thanks for any help!
90 9KT
Lots of mods
