Default using oil and fouling plugs????

Ok so after a complete rebuild on my 1996 f150 5.0 everything works well other then one issue. I'm fouling plugs and burning through oil about a quart every 700 miles. So far Iv got heavy blue smoke on start up but no other time and the plugs when I pull them especially the ones in the rear of the engine are real nasty. I removed the intake and replaced the valve seals on every valve and when I did that I noticed a lot of oil in my upper intake. Enough to pour out a puddle. (I'm assuming from my pcv valve from how it connects) so I replaced the valve seals and pcv and still have the same problem. The plugs are fouled and Iv still got oil burning. Iv got 120psi in every cylinder so I don't think it can be rings. But I completely out of ideas??????

Did you change your valve covers or are you still using stock covers?
