have you checked the PCV? the positive crankcase ventilation system is there to vent off the excess pressure created by the pistons on the downstroke that actually pressurizes the crankcase and can push oil out. It sounds like you have a clogged PCV valve. I'd change that before I got too involved in doing anything more exotic as what you are describing is a classic symptom of a clogged or inoperative PCV valve.
hope that helps

Could be the rings or valve seals are wearing out. Thicker oil like 20W-50 or STP oil treatment might help. Get a compression test.
