Replace your rings!!
My oil consumption has gone to practically zero with the new rings.
I also wondered about the oil vapor system, and when my motor was
apart I look into this. I didn't see any reasonable way to fix it
other than running the breather hose you have been talking about into
a external vapor recovery bottle. Bottom line though is oil
consumption went to non-issue levels after rings and valve job.
