Default ok i checked my oil pan to see if engine was ruined

i have no metal shavings in my oil pan so i think i am safe from running the car with no oil pressure it looks like it was leaking from behind the oil pump itself also it looks like i have water in my oil pan is this from a bad head gasket or what how can i get my oil pressure back and is this even worth trying to salvage???

Yes, water in the oil can be caused by a blown headgasket. 40 bucks and some copper spray later you can have a running car.

Yeah anything is salvagable as long as there isnt extensive block damage. Open the motor up...look at everything...then replace whats needed...rod bearings/piston rings etc

You won't be driving that car to school tomorrow.

Yeah, at this point, it all needs to come apart.
