white exhaust smoke - coolant leak? 850 1996

Hi fellow bricksters:

I've read through some of the archived posts to find information on the white smoke coming from my tailpipe. What seems to come up are that there are 3 kinds of smoke: white (coolant leak), blue (running rich), and black (burning oil). So my question is if the smoke is white and I do have a coolant leak (into the combustion chamber??). Where is the leak likely to be and how easily is this fixed?
