    There should be fuel mixed in with the oil if that happened. It might have just spun a bearing causing the top of the piston to hit the head. A full rebuild kit is anywhere from $1,200 to $2,000 that's with new linners & new pistons. secondhand crank that can be linished $100-$300 new head around $,1000 + labour. Wouldn't bother with a new turbo, radiator water pump etc etc
