if its burnin oil then new oil aint gonna help the situation.
useually when the rings are shot oil gets pushed up into the combustion chamber and burned along with the air/fuel mix thats normally there. thus creating blue smoke.
engine re-build with new rings and a bit of honeing on the bore will sort this out

Might be valve seals or guides?? 125,000k isn't enough k's for it to need a rebuild, unless it has been trashed.
