What is the blue donut part?

Torque converter, which, FT's comment initially confused me, but I think he just happened to be joking about TCs right after that.

Anything in particular that cause these trucks to burn oil? Does a quart a month sound excessive or normal

Was thinking of going to a heavier oil weight to see if that helps. I don't think it's the valve seals (no smoke on start up) so maybe piston rings.

Mileage is probably more relevant than time, but I dunno what mileage a quart would become normal at
