Underpowered and oil may mean turbo or busted rings/piston. Whatever it is, it cannot be good. Sorry to hear that happened to you. I would do a compression test. If a cylinder is significantly low, do a leak down test. If you had to pull the exhaust manifold, a look at the exhaust ports would tell you which cylinder(s) was/were passing oil. Just a few thoughts.
