Could be valve seal's, but you say lots of oil. Most likely the rings are finished, or both. Means an engine job. You most likely see a little blue smoke out the exhaust. Check to make sure all the gaskets are good, and not leaking oil. If its the valve seals, you will see just a puff of blue out the exhaust on start up only. If its the rings you will see blue all the time. Good luck.
