THe is heavy white smoke coming fromthe exhaust! I know this usual indicates a blown head gasket,however there is no oil in the coolant,nor any water in the oil in the motor! Can it still be a head gasket, without the different fluids mixing,or coolant getting into hte oil! If not could it b another problem! THere also look like some really dark oil came out of the exhaust as well,but the oil from the dipstick looks clean? Have any advice with this problem let me know?

99% its a headgasket
oil not mixing with coolant doesn’t mean that the gasket is good
possible coolant jacket to compression failure
also check head if straight after removal
