You will have to do a compression test to see if worn rings are causing excessive blow by.

Remove all the plugs. Check your compression. Add a couple tablespoons of oil to each cylinder and check the compression again. If any reading comes up a lot, the rings in that cylinder are worn. If the compression looks good, check out the oil seperator.
