The most likely problem is bad or damaged oil control rings on the pistons. If that is correct, it is not going to be cheap.
Does it burn at all rpm's, or just high? How much is it burning? Did you just add oil, maybe you added too much?
Make sure the smoke is blue, is its another color it's most likely a fuel ratio issue.

Again did you check for leaking?It's very common for the head gasket to leak at the left rear corner of the head.Especially if the gasket is original.
