HELP! I overheated/Is it done?



Overheated my converted '83.  (Small block )The heater hose rubbed on the 
a/c and split.  Idiot light didn't come on.  The car died. I let it cool 
down
and bypassed the heater.  The car ran ok, but seemed hot.  As I went to shut 
down the idiot light came on.  Car dieseled, shut it with it in gear, pulled 
battery cable, etc, wouldn't stop.  I left it.
Went back today, checked the water a little low, oil level OK, but smells 
burnt.
Started it up, no water leak, Then I looked under the car and there is a 
massive oil leak.  It is pouring out of the oil filter adapter.  Is this 
real bad? Or did it just blow the gasket? Maybe the heat expansion caused 
the leak? Either way, it remains on the side of the highway:(
What do you guys think?
Thanks,
ROb
