First thing is to establish rate of oil loss, then bring engine back to idle and monitor loss at that setting, consider options, diversion, WX , etc . If sustainable for length of flight remaining it would be better to keep it going (Elec and air offtakes) keeps down the load on remaining engine. On a twin you might just need that engine if the unthinkable happens and the other one quits
