The exhaust coloring sounds normal for a properly leaned engine.
The oil consumption of 1 quart/5 hours sounds higher-than-average. Make sure you're not topping of the oil up to the "6" quart mark. That first quart blows overboard quickly. Typically 150s get much better oil consumption keeping the level between "4" and "5" (i.e. - since there's no "5" mark add a quart of oil when it drops to "4").
