Diesel in coolant, white smoke, now wont start?

Well poor old Jack is crook. 242000 km on the clock. ORPS replaced a couple of years ago.
Started out losing coolant, so replaced water pump and all was good for a couple of weeks.
Last few days its taken a little longer to start, and run a bit rough for a few moments.
Today, missus goes to gym and car dies on way home. Restarts eventually, and when she pulls up its running as rough as, and blowing heaps of white smoke.
Now doesn't want to start at all. If it does fire up it stalls again within 10-30 seconds.
Also coolant smells like diesel.

I'm thinking head gasket perhaps, or injector O rings. I love the jackaroo, but theres no mechanics around here, that I know of, who I'd trust to know there way around this engine.

What to do next, or what to check??

Any help much appreciated.
