Lovely day coming home from the races

Went to the dragstrip today, saw about 300 14 second and slower honda's driven by asians, and a few nice cars. On the way home, for some reason I had this huge exhaust leak. I pull over and check it out, nothing seems to be getting damaged, so I continue. About half way home, I stop at a stop sign and all of the sudden I see blue smoke rolling out from under the hood, I quick pull over and shut the car off when I see I have 0 oil pressure.

Take a look, oil EVERYWHERE in my driver's side wheel well. So I make a few calls, and find a trailer. My dad arives with the trailer, and we take her home. Apon further inspection, I see the downpipe must've blown completely off the o2 housing and melted some of the plastic oil pressure line hose away.

So, tuesday I get to change the oil, bolt up the downpipe, and run a new line to the gauge. I just really hope nothing is damaged, this engine isn't cheap. This picture says it all:
