Isn't it caused by worn rings?

worn rings, worn calve guides, broken pistons...

but if it's not breathing out of the dipstick or rocker cover it ain't happening...

you might need to understand why it failed, it's unlikely to just be old age, you need to satisfy yourself which of the following made it fail, and rectify.

it's been abused, not cooled down, over boosted...
dirty oil
low oil pressure

think that's it:scratch:
