Were you in an accident or hit some road debris? Was the exhaust damaged? Did you check the oil level? You say oil was everywhere but there is nothing in the quote about replacing oil or whatever may have been damaged to leak oil. (oil could also have come from a turbo is your car has one). As to not starting, that could be anything. Start by checking the battery cables or for a charged up battery.
