Hello,

Keep in mind that when an engine gets seized due to no oil, it can do severe damage to the internals components of the engine.
Many cases a complete engine rebuilt is necessary.

Can you let me know what exactly was done?
Also are you able to turn the crank manually?

Does the engine crank at all? Or is it still seized?

Let me know more information as that will help determine what could be the issue.

Thank you.
