Blown headgasket??? 200 83

Hola bricksters:

My son's 83 245 is stalling, losing power and stumbling while driving. We've replaced the main fuel pump last week, ran OK for a while. Now it is spewing white smoke out the tailpipe. Runs a little better after warming up , seems to me to be a blown headgasket. Am I correct? How to tell?

The wiring harness is also suffering the common deterioation, even though I've patched up some wires. Could this be it?

Thanks in advance.
