92 camaro overheating and heater not working

hi, ever since i did a coolant flush, my 92 camaro keeps overheating. the heat doesn't work ether (but that stopped working 3 weeks before, it doesn't blow anything) i replaced one hose that was cracked but i think i also found a crack in the steal line. i'm not really sure if the fan turns on but after a half hour of driving, car start over heating and starts throwing smoke everywhere and i have to refill the system with coolant. also, theirs always coolant laying on the intake. do you know what i need to do to get my heater to work and make my car stop over heating??

thanks

check the fans. also check to see if the thermostat housing is leaking. it needs to build pressure to cool correctly. remove the cap when cool and turn on the car. watch the coolant to make sure it is flowing. also keep it running to make sure the fans come on.
