Check if the hose from the bank #2 Vavle cover is connected into the lower fitting on the cyclone Oil Separator valve.
#4 on the diagram
I connected those vice-versa and had 2 litres of oil burned in 10k kms,as well as a lot of oil in the intake manifold.
Pre cat sensors fault codes,some smoke etc.

Yeah.
Took it on a test drive for a couple miles and put it back in the garage to clean and wax it. Next time I started it it smoked me out. Shut it down and figured out what I did. Took it apart to get to the CCV hose connection under the intake and after getting it together it still really smokes. Copiously. Also throws Peake reader codes 50 and 51 for secondary air both banks and 22 for vanos control #5-8. Do I just need to drive it more to clear the residual oil? It starts and runs flawlessly. Any ideas?
