Not saying that a compression test and a leak down shouldn't be done but let me relate what happened to a customer last summer.Make sure it’s not pulling oil through the PVC system.
I’ve seen engines leak pretty well (under 15%) that used oil like a mother.
Most of the time the second ring was killed and the oil rings were marginal at best.
L2 sucking oil, lotsa ash. L4 not so good.
Tighten intake bolts, clean plugs, repeat .
On-end shot of 2/4 plug tips may be helpful.

Fog?????It's possible that the rings have stuck from the motor sitting that long. When we dyno restoration motors we encourage the customer to let us fog the motor for them when we are done dynoing.
Lol....Fog?????
Except for the 2 rusty cylinder walls.I’ve had two motors sit for 12-13 years. I did nothing to prepare the for the years to follow. They sat with zero attention the entire time. Primed the engine and turned the key. Ran just fine.
I am not a big fan of Champion plugs either. I've run NGK's and have seen where others say they are superior.
