burning oil, but from where? Options

lol i know i have an oil leak on my pan however i also know im burning oil some where in the engine. im pretty sure its the piston rings.

my questions are if it where the piston rings would i notice a drop in power? becaus i havnt.

second is if i do a compression test and every cylinder is ok then where else can oil be getting in from? the turbo? I checked the hot pipe and its fine and the intake side of the turbo looks good perhaps its on the exhaust side of the turbine?

It's probably your turbo.
Remove the dp and see if there is oil in it.
How much oil is in the intake side?
A small bit is normal [from the PCV], but alot = leakage.

i checked the intake side a few days ago and there inst n e thing massive its the exhaust side i think my problem is...

if it were the rings i would have blue smoke because the oil would be burned rather then just heated up and smoking right?

if it where the rings what else would i notice.... my idle is fine motor sounds fine
