Oil consumption 335d 2015 x5 f15

Ok I’m a dangerous weekend warrior / engineer but I’m stumped. This isn’t my first rodeo I’m old and looking for some input.

Replaced within 3,000 or less ago.
-oil breather hose from vcg to turbo inlet (was ripped/melted) didn’t replace sensors. Just rubber hose.
-valve cover and gasket. New OEM assembly.
-oil cap new OEM
-oil cap assembly that bolts to vcg. New OEM.
-new turbo and hit a pothole.

All done myself

Before new turbo I could smell it burning oil after I hit a pothole on cold starts but now after turbo I can’t smell anything. And 0 leaks on or around engine/ car.

Did the turbo a week ago and with all the tuning and wot pulls I already lost 1qt of oil and got a warning today.

I have no idea what to try next besides valve stem seals. Could something else be causing some high crank case pressure? Or consumption.

Any ideas / help / tests?
Car runs and drives perfectly just eats oil somewhere.

Possibly vac pump? I can’t find any info on this though.

do you see smoke from exhaust? any signs of black smoke all the exhaust. my exhaust is impressively clear for a car with 130k.
I am actually experiencing coolant leakage ... internal leakage ... still investigating ... EGR (already replaced), oil cooler and head gasket (hopefully not).
