Could a bad intake manifold or gasket cause white smoke on a b2200 Mazda?
White smoke usually indicates steam. I don't think a bad intake manifold gasket would cause it, but a bad or blown head gasket certainly would.

White smoke means you are getting anifreeze in your cumbustion chamber (cylinder) and when it fires it is burning the moisture creating white smoke.

Bad spark plugs and leads can commonly make the engine feel like its 'hesitating' or skipping a beat, often worsening in the higher rev range. However it is not the cause of white smoke.

The most common cause of this is a cracked head gasket, which you will need to replace in order to rectify the white smoke.
