Probably condensation, is it a little cool outside?
Could not hurt to put bars leak in the radiator, if it stops then it is probably a head gasket.
HI, could be normal.. to some extent.. Keep an eye on your oil dip stick and oil fill cap.. if you start to see a milky stuff develop on them the head gasket is starting to go..
good luck

Engine exhaust contains quite a bit of moisture (water vapor) that is created when air mixes with fuel and is burned inside the engine. When you shut down the engine, some of that moisture condenses inside your mufflers and exhaust pipes. When you start the engine again, the heat of the exhaust flashes the condensed moisture into steam, and it is expelled out the tail pipe(s). That's the "white smoke" that you see. Perfectly harmless, except for rusting the inside of your exhaust system.
Its normal.That's condensation getting burned away as the motor runs.That's just one of the many contaminants in your oil and that's why you change the oil every 3000 miles so you can get rid of the excess condensation and contaminants.If it continues smoking anytime the vehicle is running,it can be a blown head gasket or leaking intake gasket.If the smoke has a bluish white tint to it and only occurs mainly at startup then it would be bad valve seals or worn valve guides.
appears to me normal condensation in the pipes, only does it when its first started right?, but it could be leaking a little coolant in the exhaust
it looks like condensate in the exhaust line steaming off - very typical on any car just started.
