blown head gasket. the easiest way to tell is to open the radiator cap while the cars running BUT BE CAREFUL! if theres antifreeze in there it will spray and burn you! but if you have a blown head gasket when you open the throttle the same white smoke will blow out of the radiator cap. white smoke is a sign of a blown head gasket though.

What does it cost and whats involved in replacing a gasket in the engine block?
I take it you mean the head gasket. Head gaskets are pretty cheap, but the labor is high. If it is a V 6 or V8 you may have to do only one side. A lot would depend on what engine you have. I don't know if it is a car, boat or what, so it is hard to say what all is involved. You do have to remove the head from the engine to install a head gasket.
