Car is leaking oil and is landing on transmission or Manifold making smoke. DO U think its my Head Gasket?

Well just recently i was Pushing about 60 on my integra. And out of no where white smoke was coming out of my hood. I do notice that oil shout out and splat every where. DO you think its my Head Gasket? Its crack or blown. No smoke toward exhaust though..Car is leaking oil and is landing on transmission or Manifold making smoke. DO U think its my Head Gasket?
Easiest way to find the oil leak is take your car to a manual car was and pressure wash the engine. Then start looking for the leak. From what you are describing, it sounds like a bad valve cover gasket, but can't tell from here.Car is leaking oil and is landing on transmission or Manifold making smoke.

Clean the engine and run it then watch to see where oil comes out. It could be a head gasket, valve cover gasket, or both. You could just replace the valve cover gaskets and see if the leaking continues, and if there's no more leaking celebrate. If leaking continues, it must be coming from another source. There are other places that can leak oil.
valve cover gasket shouldnt be hard to open hood and look to see a oil leak and you wil know when you blow a head gasket will stream like a old train and coolant and oil will mix most of time over heating you got a oil leak not a blown head gasket
look at you valve cover gaskets, and the ooil sending unit. There is a oil dye you can buy at pep boys. Put it in where you put the oil, and when it leaks again, you will see the DYE, an then locate the problem area.
it,s probably coming from the intake gasket. the intake is probably leaking down on the manifold or it could be like my car. my valve pan gaskets were leaking down on the manifold and i noticed the smell when i turned on the heater.
um valve cover gasket would b more likely with what u have described but no way to tell without looking...cud b a hose or something else....
