If the setting was on outside air, try setting the A/C on recirculate to eliminate the vapor.

your talking about your a/c compressor right?

that cold white mist is probably just refrigerant leaking out of your compressor

Well, for one, now you know the shifter boot leaks. But I don't see how smoke from below the car would relate the A/C system, unless it was somehow caused by the compressor. For the white mist, I'd also have to guess it might be refrigerant leaking into the system. If it is, then breathing it in is not going to be good for you.
