Question 91 turbo II burning oil?? or ...

i have a 91 turbo II, the oil is comin out beside the oil pan driver side, i cant find the leak, its not under the oil filter, and when i was going 80 mph at 3000rpm i was smokin but it stoped right when i let off... Sometimes smoke comes out for a few secs on a cold start.. smoke is bluish like burning oil.. can anyone put their finger on the problem?

Well you should burn like a quart every 3 or 4 thousand miles. Do you see any puddles or what? I have a leak too and haven't been able to find it yet.

Man I am really not sure. How much oil do you lose? My leak only happens when the car is running. If I let it sit for 3 or 4 days it will have the same amount of oil as when I left it. I am about to take mine to the local rotary shop, I am sure you got one over there somewhere. I am just hoping I don't need to have the engine disasembled to fix it.
