Does he have a K&N, if so he may have fine scratches in his cylinder and the oil is seeping through and being burned off.

Would you not notice an excessive amount of smoke if it's burning that much oil? Are you positive it's not leaking from the drain plug or from the oil resevoir itself? Just make sure before you tear down an engine.
