No blow by and oil pressure is good with 25lbs according to the factory gauge, and 60lbs above 1000rpm.

I've seen something similar but the engine was down 1 cylinder because an intake valve wasn't opening. Without the intake valve opening, the vacuum in the affected cylinder on the intake stoke would suck in oil by the piston rings. Possible not to notice the missing cylinder until you drive it maybe. In my case, the culprit was a broken rocker arm stud.
