well i have alot of oil leaks everywhere. i just changed my valve cover gasket but still have more leaks. iv been stalling alot everytime i come to a stop and put it in nuetral my rpms just drops to like 300 and stalls on me most of the times. and i have white/blue smoke coming out of my exhaust ALOT of smoke..smells really bad.. the other day i was driving all of a sudden i see that my temp gauge was rising to HOT so i pulled over and saw that coolant was leaking. i checked my resivor and it was filled and im guessing it was overflowing the overflow valve and my no coolant in my rad. when i opened my rad cap nothing but smoke.. could this be a BHG?

wow.
These things could all be from one thing or not related at all.
The overheating/overflowing could be due to something as simple as a faulty radiator cap.
The smoking could be turbo seals, or bad blow by.
Bad idle could be anything from improper electrical connections, faulty vacuum conections, or a bad air/fuel mix
To start, check all your Vacuum lines and then all your electrical connections, make sure there all fine and dandy.
Then from there, get your cap tested or just by a new 10$ one from the autoparts store. And start eliminating possible causes one by one.

dont always assume the worst. start simple. ive had a couple vaccuum leaks. its tough to see them at first so take them off and bend the hoses so u can check for cracks.
u also say that u have alot of oil leaks. make sure u have the right amount of oil in. id check that before everytime u start your car and turn it off. make sure u are not starving your motor of oil
your idle could be screwed due to something as silly as the stock FPR going out.
are u running any mods?
