Engine been sat for 6 months. Freshly fitted rebuilt turbo. Started - missing on 2 cylinders, billowing masses of smoke out. Plugs on the missing cylinders soaked in oil and fuel. Tested furl and ignition systems, all seems to be working. Misfiring cylinders must be down to the amount of oil pumping through.

It would seem to me the engine is pumping huge amounts of oil through either rings or from the head.

However compression tested seems good to new, results below.
Checked under rocker cover, nothing obviously sticking open.

Taken manifold off, you can see below, 2cyl clean, one a little oily, one very very oily.

Any ideas?!

I'm definitely no expert but valve stem seals are regularly mentioned when extra oil noticed in the exhaust. If its running down the intake valves like in the third pic it might explain your issue.

Gummed oil control rings very probably.
