well, I doubt it is your pressure sending unit, as the oil would probably leak on the exterior of the engine if it were this. The turbos will be easy to diagnose. Take off one of the pressurized intake pipes and check for lots of oil. I have no idea how to check if the OMP is bad though. Also, one of the lubricating valves (technical name?) on the rotor housings may be stuck, causing excess oil to enter the combustion chamber. You may want to take suggestions from someone with more advanced troubleshooting knowledge though. Mine are more or less a shot in the dark.

Oil injectors do no pump enough oil to cause constant smoking. Only bad oil seals, cracks in side housings, or turbos do that. A dealer can check the OMP if they still have the equipment. If plugs are normal, then most likely the turbos. Pull DP and look into turb assemble and the two turbine wheels. If black and wet looking then there it is. Or look for too much oil in IC and such pipes.

A little automotive common sense!
