Exclamation Yikes!!! HELP!!!

On my way into work this morning, when I decided to pass this truck by shiftiing to 3rd (turning off O/D), when i looked back to see if i had passed him, I saw a HUGE cloud of white smoke billowing out of my tailpipe and ever subsequent time i hit the gas. I get off the freeway, check it out, and there was smoke (very little tho) coming from the back of my engine. I get going again, and no smoke plus car drove fine the 1/2 mile to my office. but when i got to work, I looked under the car and noticed it was leaking oil BAD. What the hell did I break!?!? I work like 35 miles from home so I doubt there'll be anyway i can make it home on my own power to fix it. BTW, the car is a 93 I4 Camry, w/ 232K on it....Thanks!!!!

check your fluid levels, then either drive her to a garage or home

probably a head gasket

can you see where the oil is leaking out of? the highest point on the engine...
