Yep, she is toast! Drop the pan and have a look around. If it looks like a grenade went off and is full of shiny bits, she is a nice boat mooring anchor. If it looks clean except for intermix she is probably worth rebuilding if you have the time and talent. Otherwise a 996 3.4L or a Chevy LS3 V8 is a realistic option.
Good luck!
