White Smoke, Head Gasket?

I dunno whats wrong, I didnt see this smoke till it was dark and i had my hood up then when i rev i see alil white smoke

My car doesn't overheat, the oil isn't milky & well thats all I got

I took it on a 100 mile trip earlier this week no problems, besides my carb of course but thats a different issue...I really need to make it to a music/band/jam session tomorrow and thats like 50 miles away!!! Should I be concerned? Oil level has been the same for the longest time so arghh....

Dunno if my slight exhuast leak has anything to do with it? I'm pretty sure I have one haha after all we had to unbolt it to get the starter out & I sealed it back up with that gasket seal anyway thanks
