Default 1999 MPV (New Zealand) blowing smoke

Gidday guys and gals, i have a 1999 MPV which blows a unreal amount of white smoke, its stops only after driving for a good 45min as a general rule, but sometimes it still blows a miniscule amount after that.

Please help a fellow out and let me know how to either fix this (im not a qualified Mechanic and not the best with tools but can attempt most things succesfully) or how much it normally cost to fix

Spanks

Hi, Is it Diesel or petrol ? White smoke usually is a coolant leak could be a worn head gasket. Are all the levels ok? Ie Oil level coolant level?.
