Angry Blown Head Gasket?

I have a 2000 Cadillac DeVille, i'm losing coolant but it isn't leaking on the he ground. I've been told that its either a blown head gasket or a cracked head. car doesn't run hot and i can get on it and drive hard. i really have no clue of what it could be, i just know that i'm losing coolant and i can occasionally smell it outside the car. HELP!!!!

Default Coolant

Do you have the white smoke coming out the tailpipe yet?? Is the crankcase oil contaminated yet??
