So after the last drive, I added 1 qt of Lucas oil stabilizer to the engine oil to replace the missing quart. This time, there was no visible blue smoke on acceleration after about 5 mins of driving, and virtually no oil used on a 30 mile drive. Not sure if the Lucas is thickening the oil and preventing the blowby, or finally a ring that was stuck finally loosened up and sealed correctly.
