Failed oil pump would make some serious racket before the engine let go. You would also get some indication on the gauge in the dash. (not to say it isn't toast now....) Find out where your oil is coming from. Post Pics.

i'm sure the cat is a little water logged, but that's the least of his problems.

that oil looks a little more like an oil/coolant milkshake than just pure oil, and combined with the banging and the lockup, it might be ugly.
