The plugs are in order of the pics 1,2,3,4 as you scroll down. These plugs have about 3000 miles on them.

No rattles that I can hear, smoke is definietly blue oil smoke.

So far after running heavier oil, consumtion is much less.

if its a cloud of blue smoke when accelerating it almost guaranteed to be oil rings.. i realize your compression test is coming back pretty good, but its overwhelmingly likely that its the rings.
