Car trouble with 99 Chevy Lumina Sign In

Frown So what seems to be my problem is hard to find out but I thought I would give it a try and ask......so I have a 99 Chevy lumina 111K in miles and a 3.1 engine, the car drives fine but yesterday I realized I was leaking antifreeze and in addition I'm getting a white lite smokey substance out of my exhaust. Please help and let me know if you need additional info. No check engine light on and I really don't think its the coolant reservoir because upon looking under the car it seems like the leak is coming from the middle like right underneath the engine. Thanks

The first think you have to do is pressure test the cooling system and find the leak. The white smoke could mean you have already driven it too far when hot and did internal damage but that remains to be determined.
