Default Just Got 91 Si, 2.05l, Meeds Engine

Ok, I just received (as a gift) A 91 Prelude SI, 2.05L, from my dad, who left for A 1 year mission with S.F. Anyways, the body is perfect, no rust, even shines, but it has 300k mi. and is blowing crazy smoke... I'm 28, have a limited budget (3 Kids), and need to fix it cheap... any suggestions? I am not at all adept with cars...need real help!
P.S. I'm a personal Trainer and will swap info in my field to anyone who helps! Thanks!!!

Default I meant oil, not smoke...

Thanks for responding soo fast, I meant that it's blowing oil, up to the underside of the hood... not smoke. Sorry, I must have spaced!
thanks again!!

Try gettin a valve cover gasket , their cheap like 15 bucks or somethin , make sure u buy the haynes for ur car and a torque wrench so u dont break the bolt tightening them down but my first guess would be that ur valve cover gasket is bad hope that helps

edit: the haynes i reffered to is a cheap maintenance guide to cars their at ur local parts store for about $15
