Most 5.0's use a little oil as a matter of course due mostly to 'looser' oil rings - but not to the point of actually causing blow-by.

I bought my '90 LX new and have used about a quart every 1,600 - 1,800 miles ever since. Still does this after more than 116,000 miles. No smoke, no clogged PCV screen, no problem.

Relax.
