Pieces In Oil Pan

[lsmalley]

I'm not sure how many pieces are left, but it was enough to drop the oil pressure down to zero as I was driving on a long stretch of highway. Had to pull over and get towed. I drained the oil and then blew compressed air through the dipstick tube to get as many of these pieces out as possible. Anyone else have any experience with broken guide rails in the pan? How significant is this? Meaning, other than monitoring the pressure, how critical is it to get this fixed? I'll need to purchase an engine lift.
