Unhappy What can i do to fix? help is much appreciated

Hey guys, Here's the problem. I went out of the country for a couple months and i left my cars in care of a friend... anyways long story short car is a 90 Na/t2 A hose busted while driving oil sprayed everywhere, instead of having car towed home, tried driving it. car completely locked up and then wouldnt turn over again... hose was replaced but engine still wont crank. Is the motor done? is there anything that can fix this problem without dumping huge amounts of money at it again?

I've tried searching and i cannot find anything. Any help or similar experience would be greatly appreciated. Thank you again.

is there any chance that the motor can be turned with wrench or impact wrench or is that a completely different scenario all together?

Why would you even consider driving the car with no oil pressure or oil for that matter????

It's done. Seized. Toast.

It's gonna need a complete core. Oil not only lubricates it's also 30% of the engines cooling.

Yea, new engine time. I hope no fragments came loose in the process of driving it with no oil :-/ or you may find yourself needing a new turbo.
