22re consuming oil

I have a 91 22re with 105k just did the timing chain /hg/ and ended up using a lce egr block plate kit to move things along faster


with about 400 miles on it now I noticed it consumes oil like crazy and idk what or where it is coming from . Doesn't leak and from what I can see it doesn't smoke. Compression is good there is no blow by from pcv valve and I replaced that too. Once in awhile I'll smell oil in the cab at no specific time it's just random. Any ideas?
Vaccum lines hooked up wrong ?
Cant be valve seals cause it doesn't smoke on start up or idle or deccel
please help it's my DD and I need her to live haha

even though you state it isn't burning oil, or can't be valve seals, i'd pull and inspect the spark plugs. it's easy and cheap to do, and might tell you something that you otherwise can't see. if nothing else, it will confirm that you need to look elsewhere about oil consumption.

Since you just changed them, it will be easier to tell; they'll be coated in gooey black junk. I lost a piece of piston ring before my rebuild and that spark plug was coated with junk right after cleaning it.
