Should I bother getting tuned or just plan on a rebuild?

It looked more black to me like fuel?
Is it leavin clouds behind you or something?
Id give seafoam a shot... then it will be smoking good.
If you watch (kind of hard to see) there is a light blue smoke. Laura followed me today and its putting out the light blue smoke anytime I'm on the gas. If I stop and take off again I get a bit more than if I'm just driving along.
Did a compression test a few days back and was 185-190 on every cylinder dry, wet got me ~5psi more.
Not sure what to do at this point.

Worst case say it is oil.
I would put new valve seals in it just to start just on milage alone.
It's not too bad on a LS car to get the seals in compared to other engines out there.
I was going to do seals this weekend, just have a few people saying its rings.

that looks black to me. (fuel). you'll know by your oil consumption if it's worth tearing into IMO. I'd monitor your oil consumption and it's not out of the ordinary, get the tune and be done with it.

Another clip
Oil consumption hasn't been bad... I do have a catch can that fills up with oil pretty fast but otherwise I don't seem to be losing more than I have the past 6 years.

Pull some plugs see if you have signs of it burning it.
Make sure your PCV system is not a problem.
You still running a LS1 valley cover?
Yeah LS1 valley cover still...
I pulled all the plugs when I did the compression test...only #7 has oil on it. The rest look a little white but no signs of oil.
