Smoking Generator Engine (Part 2) - Engine Repair

I picked up this Craftsman branded Briggs and Stratton powered generator on Craigslist for $80. The engine runs well and it makes power. Only problem is that it is burning oil and sending a lot of blue/gray smoke out the exhaust. I was hoping that this would be an easy fix. But ended up tearing the engine down at the end of part 1. Lets repair this smoking engine.
