Oil in exhaust manifold/white smoke

I have a 1991 plymouth laser turbo-charged 2.0 liter 4 cylinder and I recently removed the exhaust manifold to find an oily cake buildup in the number 4 cylinder port, then I replaced the manifold(which is cracked) to check and see if oil is flowing through the cracks (and it was) so the oil is flowing through the cracks in the manifold and my car is constantly running with white smoke coming from the exhaust not puffs of white smoke. Could this be oil and antifreeze together, or just not enough oil to make the smoke blue but enough to cause condensation to turn the smoke white?? Any ideas on why the oil is in only the #4 exhaust port and why the smoke is white not blue. I have a few ideas on the issue. #1 the oil could be blow-by? But I would assume it wouldnt just be in the 4 th port,#2 valve stems/seal?#3 head gasket and valve seal or ring? any help would be great!
