Help!! Lost oil Pressure in my Vert

So I was driving down the road today in my 89 convertible, when suddenly the A/C went out, I smelled gas or oil, not sure, then my oil pressure light went on, and my pressure gauge shows almost no pressure. So I immediately pull over, open the hood, and the smoke of burning oil, and the smell, and the engine bay covered in oil... Can someone please, please tell me what the F happend?!!!!! I would def. appreciate all info!!

JOHN

You have a leak

Check your oil cooler lines/oil filter/front cover Oring/oil cooler/oil metering pump/ and everything else with the word oil before it.

Download the FSM lubrication chapter.

It might be a good time to steam/wash your engine. Top off oil, disconnect CAS, and have some one turn your engine over while you look for the leak. If it leaks that fast, you should be able to spot it quick.
