my old y7 did the same thing but no hole on the block, just shattered pieces everywhere in the oil pan area and rod split in half just like yours.

SOMETHING other then driving "abuse" killed that engine. I've abused mine far more then you could have ever hoped to and never had an issue like that. Come to think of it, it hasn't given me any problems. My 110k miles old 93 EX coupe that I bolted a blower to never gave me any trouble either...

Yes low oil can cause this. The rod bearings won't be lubricated, they will bind and the crank will still be spinning causing the rod to snap and shoot through the block.
