What is your question?
I have a 2002 Nissan Maxima gle 3.5 V6, bought it 5months ago no issues first week or so. Then realized it's burning oil blue smoke from exhaust when it first starts. Oil got into the cylinder 5 spark plug and burnt the plug. What is can cause this oil leaking past piston ring and going to spark plug?

Hello, this could be due to a valve seal issue, or could be from a piston ring and cylinder wall issue. I'd first take a compression test of the engine and perform a leak down test as needed. I'd check the PCV system to ensure it's operating properly. And then it may be necessary to remove the cylinder head to inspect it fully and check the pistons and cylinder walls.
