help asap. All my oil is gone

I was driving home today and when I was going up over a bridge my check engine light came on, half way across the bridge the pedal cam unresponsive and I heard a hissing noise, then the truck just shut off and smoke was pouring out from under the hood , when I opened the hood everything was covered with oil. Also there's now a pin hole in the back of the oil pan smaller than my pinky that oil is leaking from as well. I don't know what it could be and curious to know if anyone knows what all could be leaking of if they have had this happen to them before

By the sounds of it you blew a HPO line (S/S braided lines in the valley that go to each head) The pin hole in the oil pan is likely the inspection cover for the bell housing. Any oil or fuel in the valley will drain down the back of the block and through that hole.

HPOP line, fitting, or connector blew. Oil pan is fine.

This is not uncommon.

Filler up, clean the valley with some degreaser, start'er up and see what you see.

If its a line or fitting, they're cake to fix. 20-30 Min job.

Cleaning up that mess...... That's going to take a while.
