For what it's worth, are you sure the block is cracked? You didn't mention whether the truck runs, but if it's spitting oil then I have to assume you've at least started it. Also, I'll have to assume it was driven home. That said, assuming it was driven home and it's not stuttering like a SOB, the block might be fine. You might only have a blown valve cover gasket, head gasket, rear main seal, etc. Take it to the mechanic and have it diagnosed.

Let us know how you get on and Good Luck!
Well I have done more reading and am going to have to check the ccv, it did run I think its the lesser of the evils to keep it, I do love to drive it and the trans was a major expense I Thank all ya'll for youyr ideas.
Thanks again
