After engine fire at national day

[123-gtt]

Hi all well I think I pushed the old girl a bit hard on the track and it ended up in a small fire
We thought it was caused by the starter motor earthing out on the exhaust,but the car is breathing like mad and kicking oil out of all the breather pipes ,it's breathing really heavy out of the oil filler cap,not so much out of the sump breather pipe?
It's very smokey on start up then,throws loads of oil down the exhaust, then when warm it stops,but not tried to drive in boost.
It got me home, back to reading about a 4 hour drive with no heating problems at all and no smoke, and the oil and water is clean?
Could a shot turbo cause these symptoms, or is it more likely rings?

Do a compression test marrow rule out the rings....

and make sure your rocker cover breather isnt blocked, including the panel within the rocker cover.
