Default For all you oil burning wizards!!!

Alright my engine has less then 5,000 miles on it, i notice that its been losing oil about 1-1 1/2 quarts every month. Thing is its not smoking at all! But i do notice tiny black deposits and spots on my rear bumper and over time my bumper becomes darkish grey...(This is on a white bumper). So i did a compression check...they are all fine...leak down test was good as well. When i checked my pistons thru the spark plug hole, all of them were damp and wet...so i poked a stick down there and it was oil....So where is it leaking from???? and how come its not burning it/or smoking out the exhuast! Seems like it just sputters the wet oil out the exhuast on the exhaust stroke...Which explains the black spots/deposits on my bumper...Also i have zero oil leaks!

Im guessing it may be my valve seals or guides leaking...Which kind of irritates me beucase i had a machine shop do all the head work before it was put on, and i have a feeling they botched it up...

Any other possibilities where its coming from? This was on all motor when i first broke it in, so it was losing that much every month, now being turbo, i lose the same amount in two weeks....Any help would be very much appreciated..

i mean i could always just keep adding oil in it...which i have been..but that oil freaking adds up! So i decided it needs to be fixed...

Thanks
