Ask the mechanic if he found metal in the filter and oil sump. If it's free of debris, then the failure may not be catastrophic. If there's hope, take it to a top notch Porsche mechanic and spend an hour or two in labor for a deeper look. As someone said, an AOS failure can look terrible as smoke pours out of the exhaust. Maybe you'll just get lucky.
