    Engine may have a blown broken piston rod seen a lot of those on severe oil deprived g2 motors on this site. Usually cylinder number 3. Throws it through the side of the block usually.Take the plugs out and see if the pistons are moving if turned by crank bolt.
    Sounds like it's a mess though.

    I guess you're not alone now. My 2010 even snapped the input shaft.
