broke my crank yesterday

car cut out on the track at 60ft mark. what I thought was something in the oil pump locking up and breaking the roll pin in the dizzy drive, turned out to be the oil pump shaft broken and a broken crank.

not sure what broke first, the crank or the oil pump shaft which then jammed the crank.

also found what looks like a dowel pin in the pan?

not took it all apart yet to check for any damage but it`s going to be expensive I guess.
