if you phone LMF they do a full fitting kit so you dont need to buy it seperate. As for the oil thats quite a lot mine is currently using around the same put a new turbo on and that didnt fix it, On a further diagnosis its probably a cracked piston or oil control rings. So a fully forged rebuild for me.
