It is perfectly normal for oil mist to be carried over past the turbo and into the inlet track, what you don't want though is a lot of oil......a diesel engine will self destruct (run away) if it has a decent supply of oil to feed off - which is why I don't think yours is burning oil on cold start.

A blueish smoke can also be a diesel fueling issue on cold start, aren't new injectors supposed to be calibrated with the ECU etc ??
