Dan, I'm sure someone will come back with some suggestions to help resolve your problem. Sorry to hear about the flop and resulting damages.

However, without trying to be a butt-head here, let me just point out that in a forum where there's no body language or facial expressions, and no voice intonations to go by, a post like yours is very hard to read. You really need to use appropriate punctuation and check your spelling. Although your question is important to you, a lot of us aren't going to take the time to decipher a 93 word sentence that has 12 grammar and spelling errors. It's tough to read.

how far on it's side did it go?

after it was corrected, did you pull all the spark plugs and turn the motor over? I've rolled my jeep plenty of times, and every time I get oil up in the combustion chaimber, I have to pull the plugs, turn the motor over a couple times, oil will squire out, it'll run a little rough at first and it'll smoke like a som-a-gun for a while but always ends up being alright after a while.

also check your spark plugs, if they are completely covered in oil, they need replacing.
If you got spark, now check fuel, hasn't happened to me, but I have heard of efi fuel pumps assemablly's breaking in hard flops.
