Burning oil Nor Cal

I am burning .5 to a gallon a day. Its blowing oil out of the crank case tube,blowing blue smoke clouds intermittently when I'm off the throttle going down grades not really when I'm on the throttle. Rings or turbo?

What does a rebuild from a reputable shop run? Can someone refer me to a shop in Nor Cal I'm in Discovery Bay near Stockton.Thanks

For a shop you can go to are Ken Imler Diesel in Sacramento (over by Cal Expo off of Arden) or Left Coast Diesel in Dublin (off of I-580). Both are excellent diesel shops!!
