Default found source of white smoke!!

For those of you who remember my previous post about smoke out the breather and white smoke out the tailpipe, I found the problem today. It's a blown head gasket! I pulled the dipstick and the oil didn't look quite right, I check the coolant and that was low...again...after I just filled it yesterday, then I pulled all the plugs on the side the smoke was coming from and saw a drop of antifreeze on the #5 plug. Anothe thing was the fact that my engine just didn't seem to idle quite right either.
Anyway, is there anything I can do while I have the heads off?
