Scotty,
Maybe you're simply using way too much water in your water injection
system!<GGGGGG>
Seriously, in cold weather, when a cold car is started, the water vapor
in the exhaust partially condenses to a white mist as it's exiting the
exhaust pipe. You get about a pound of water vapor for every pound of gasoline you
burn. (And that's with NO water injection). But after the car is driven
awhile, the visible white mist should disappear as the now hot water vapor will
dissipate before it can condense.
Wait till we get hydrogen fueled cars. For every pound of hydrogen we
consume, the hydrogen engine will produce EIGHT pounds of water vapor.

I have the same problem when the car has been sitting a while; no black or
blue smoke but lots of white smoke when started cold. My rig is a '66 140-HP
though so I don't think it's cooling water leaking.
