2.3 OMC Cobra 1988 -White Smoke From Exhaust, no water in oil??????

[tooodoggs]

Hi-
I recently overfilled my oil and ran it and oil was gushing from cap overflow.
Made it to the dock. Pulled it out changed the oil and did not overfill. Now I have a LOT of white smoke when started on the muffs. temp was warm 175 on muffs.
Any ideas what could be wrong? Is it a blown head gasket?.....Thanks for any help!

The spark plugs look normal and fine, normal wear.

Are you sure it's not just steam ?

Steam/White smoke is caused by engine coolant/water being processed in the combustion chamber(s) of the engine....blown head gasket
hope not

Water runs through the exhaust, when I went to school, heat water up and you get steam
