No Oil Pressure update with pics

My baby went to the Dr last week

and this is what he found. Judges oil gear failed. Flat head bolts holding it together sheared off letting it move around damaging the flats on the end of the gear shaft.

Which has caused this.

The good news is that I got her shut down soon enough that there isn't any major damage. Looks like a new oil pump gear, gaskets, seals, rings and HLAs will take care of the problem. Looking forward to getting her back in a couple of weeks with a fresh engine. Also discovered the waterpump shaft seal was leaking letting oil into the engine coolant.
