Do not even attempt to start it back up until the engine is looked at by a specialist that knows what the few symptoms of IMS Bearing Failure are. This one might be "saveable" at this stage if its not started back up to consume it's self.
There are a lot of other things that this could be as well, but I always default to worst case. Don't even allow the mechanic to start the car up to listen to the noise before the sump plate is pulled to look for debris.
