Need Help Asap

Ive had a coolant leak for a short time. It will completely run down in approx 3days. If you lay under the truck u can watch it drip...drip...drip within 15seconds of eachother. The truck seems to have white smoke at start and when warmed up. I do have a superchip and i reprogramed it back to stock before takin it to the dealership tomorrow. I also have an airraid intake which i took out and put stock back in to make sure ford doesnt try to void my warranty. The truck seems to run alright, not good but ok. Im not sure if its a headgasket or what. Does anyone have any ideas as to what it could be. Headgasket or egr. I couldnt tell where the drips where coming from. Also i have a 04 6.0 with about 44k on it. I take it that the headgasket is warrantied up to 100k miles? Thanks for the help

Quite possibly the EGR cooler-oil cooler connector hose.

I doubt it also. You would have to be intentionally looking for such to see it...
