Rx7 burning blue oil

Hi my fd has been burning a little oil on idle a deceleration pretty much when it goes into vacuume. I am thinking it is the stock twin turbos that are going out. There is a little oil in intake and when bov goes off it has oil residue coming out. I also noticed when I Jazz the throttle there is blue smoke coming from the air filter.
Thanks
Richard

yep sounds about what im seeing on mine and will be changing the turbo's this coming week while off. A good thread with a picture of about 90% of the stuff that needs to be undone to get the unit out to help. Only thing not in picture is intake stuff, oil feed line nut, downpipe and water lines from what I can see from FSM.
