You won't get excessive oil consumption from the vac pump on an 83, they vent directly to the chain case and not the intake, and have a piston type pump anyway.
You should also check the oil separator -- if the foot valve is bad, all the oil from the blowby is going down the intake instead of back into the pan. this will be worse after a hard run, and will vanish upon sitting as the oild works it's way into the pan.
