Something that just occurred to me after rereading your post is the
ntake gasket/manifold area. Sometimes it's tough to keep everything in
place when putting the manifold on. If any machining was done it may
have messed up the match. .....

Zack,
I'd suggest that you check with the machine shop to see if they milled 
the heads.  I believe that for every 0.010" of an inch removed from the 
head, you should remove 0.012" from each port side of the intake 
manifold.  Don D. could confirm this.  If they milled the heads and not 
the intake, you can possibly tell if the intake gasket is leaking after 
you remove the intake.  If there's oil in the intake port on the 
cylinders with the fouled plugs, that could be the source of the oil 
consumption.  I've seen this happen on both Mopar and Chevy engines.
