Re: white smoke....and its not the tires
My Bronco sits outside. When ever I start it up (once a week or so) it shoots water onto my Tarus sitting next to it. It shoots a fair amount too, a trail with a big splat.
You can get do a leak down test on the cooling system if you have a pressure checker.
I think your ok though. Just keep a eye on the water level.
The waterpump has a "bypass" hose from the intake to the pump. Thats normal.
