Default drove over a rock - bad happenings

So yesterday as i pulled out of my friends driveway i accidentally drove over a huge f*cking rock. I got out and looked under the car and nothing was leaking and nothing hanging down. So i went to bigfoot hunting (seriously, we had a sighting). On the way back from Dunkin Doughnuts after i heard i weird banging noise that i couldn't make out. Today on the way to class i get this bad gas smell.

I just got under the car and all i can see is that i might have an oil leak around the oil pan( oil filter?) and that my muffler;s insides are torn apart.

Help Me Save my rex!!

okay, so replace or weld oil pan, be sure all dents are removed and nothing inside is effed up. Then do the same with the muffler. Fix or replace. Then go to the fuel tank you must have put a leak in, and jb weld it until you have a saturday to repair the right way. Lastly, watch out for **** when you drive a 5 inch high car. haha. I ripped a drain plug out going over an already dead raccoon, so I sort of feel your pain. It just peeled it backwards.

the oil pan and muffler are gonna get replaced. The fuel tank is what i'm worried about right now cause i've already dumped oil down a main road awhile back. i still can't believe i hit the damn rock, night driving in North NJ is unsafe
