The engine blowby gases are excessive and is breathing too much due to worn piston rings.

Most don't work but you can try seamfoam.

you could try a heavier weight oil or an additive like LUCAS oil stabilizer which dramatically cuts down on vaporization/dispersion of oil. is there any oil in air cleaner itself?
