Milky white oil would indicate a bad water pump seal, especially if your coolant level is low. A liquid cooled four stroke could possibly leak into the lower end from a bad head gasket but not a two stroke. A bad head gasket on a two stroke will either leak out around the gasket area or leak inward and burn a funny sweet smell in the exhaust.
