My issue is deeper than that. Something is jammed in the oil pump, locking it up. Any pin will break with this condition. Twice in my case, the second pin sheared instantly. This second roll pin had a piece of hardened steel wire punched through the roll pin for extra strength and it broke instantly.
SO, I have to drop the pan, pull the pump, find what's stuck in there, hopefully it's nothing critical, and then put the whole car all back together.
The journey is starting to suck.
