Agreed, just put oil in it and take out the fuel pump fuse so that the car cannot start and then crank the motor until the oil pressure light goes out. And I wouldn't sweat it too much. I know it's a different motor, but many years ago I had a Fiat 850 that lost all of it oil while I was stopped at a stop sign, I saw the oil pressure light go on and I immediately shut it off, but I did hear a bit of a rattle.

after I put oil in to it, it rattle a little bit when i first started it but after that the car ran fine. Well, is fine as a Fiat 850 could run.
