706 gas drinks oil

My 706 gas which was recently overhauled with new pistons, rings and sleeves started drinking oil. Champion 16 plugs would not cut it even though they worked for 5 years perfectly. I put a hotter Autolite in .... they fouled too. Finally I put Champion RY 21's in. They run hot enough to stay clean. This tractor really smokes and DRINKS the oil. I mean like 4 quarts in around 3 hours. It looks like a 706 diesel. Still has power. I had just changed to 15-40 oil. I thought this was the problem. HEAR IS WHAT I FOUND!!!!!!!! COULD THIS BE THE PROBLEM?????? I decided to really look it over. Nothing else had worked. I pulled the dry air filter. The rubber pipe that brings air to the air cleaner had filled with grass and weed leaves and seeds. This plugging occurred right where the pipe hooks to the air cleaner tank. Looks like it was restricting the flow big time. It was quite a wad of material. Could this restriction actually cause a LARGER vacume in the cylinder when the piston is in the intake stroke and draw oil up along the cylinder wall rather than the oil ring pulling it all down? IT DRANK OIL! I have not checked it yet. I was just wondering if anyone had heard of this happening?
