Don't rule out piston rings, but more than likely turbo oil seals. Does it smoke in the mornings when first started and then keep smoking till it's warmed up a bit?

i'd say turbo since it's when you lett off and the vacuum the exhaust produces is drawing oil out of the turbo which has oil at a high pressure.
