I just changed the oil 200 miles ago and now iam not sure how low it is but iam going to change it again to be safe. Oh yeah the oil pressure gauge on the dash never moved so iam hoping the engine didn't starve for oil.

UPDATE!!!
$19.50 for the HPOP o-ring kit and alot of clean and the truck is running. Around lunch time at work i checked the rear plug on the HPOP and used a small mirror to get under it and seen the o-ring was pushed out from the plug. I got my 18mm and the fitting was loose. So i guess the fitting started to back out and once the pressure blew out the o-ring that was it. I replaced the O-ring and used the supply lock tight (sp?) cleaned the heck out of the valley and underside of the truck and its 100% again. Oh yeah it took 12qts of oil for the oil level to be at its proper level!!! I drove the truck and the motor sounds good and tight so iam not worried about any lower end damage.
Thanks again guys you saved me alot of money.
