Thanks again Chris. Yet again you are right on the money. My engine builder came over tonight and I think I was right about the engine smoking due to the PCV vac. line routing. Here's what happened.

I took off the plenum cover wiped a large puddle of oil from the inside of the plenum, then I blocked off the PCV valve vac. hose with a screw, and started her. Hardly any smoke whatsoever. He took the oil cap off the spout and said "If the rings didn't seat correct smoke would blow out of this spout" while at idle and WOT. There was no smoke pouring out. That's good right? Anyway, the next step is exactly what you said. Re-routing the PCV valve. I'll know for sure what the deal is with the oil burning tomarrow morning. Thanks again Chris. You're the man.
