Default Need help! My car died on me! Oil just poured out!

My 98 prelude just died out on me.. I was accelerating pretty hard and once I hit about 5000 rpms in 1st gear.. I heard something blow up from the engine and my car just shut off on me.. It started pouring from the crankcase.. a burning smell came out of the engine and a some white smoke.. What do u think it could be?? any guesses? Could it be due to overheating? Blown headgasket? etc etc.. any help would be appreciated!
