White = water = more likey head gasket that turbo I'd have thought
 Or, being more optimistic, may just have been a lot of condensation from sitting for a while as Pukka said. Check for mayo in the rad cap and maybe do a compression test.

Smoke
It might be the thin pipe is cracked. Its a pig to replace. Very difficulyt to get at. It driops oil on to the hot manifold and makes smoke. My mechanic made a new (colied) pipe and fitted it. Mind you, my turbos just started sounding like a fighter jet on take off...high pitched whistle.....?
