The reason for wanting to know how full the oil is, is that the injectors are driven off of oil pressure, if the oil gets low, it will shut down.
Fuel at or below1/4 tank is generally where there could be a possibility of running out of fuel if the pickup foot fell off, but with 1/2 you are probably fine there.

Fuel pump is on the driver's side frame rail, and the only filter it has pre pump is a mixing chamber inside the tank.

Based on your screen name I would assume you are in California? Maybe someone close could run some diagnostics, to get live data for you.
Are you getting a Wait to Start light on the dash? Can you hear the pump running? Are you getting a SES(Service Engine Soon) light?

You said that was 3 weeks ago right? It may not have or still may not have stored codes(If you don't have a Service Engine Soon light on), but the live data is what we could use to get the information to lead towards a no start condition.
The only few times I have had a stall condition, were sticking IPR(Injector Pressure Regulator) valves/solenoid. But generally speaking the CPS is the first thing to change out, just for the simple fact they are a cheap part to keep a spare in the glove box, or console.
