Hello,
If your oil pan broke into pieces then all of the oil would have been lost from the engine. Without oil to lubricate the rotating assemblies in your engine, it probably would have seized, or at the very least caused major bearing damage. The good news is that with the oil pan broken like that you should be able to jack up your vehicle and secure it safely.here is a link for you to go to about that:

After your vehicle is securely jacked up you should be able to look up into your engine and see not only the main bearings but the connecting rod bearing as well. Normally with low oil bearing failure the camshaft bearings are the first go go since they are the furthest away from the oil pump/sump, but with a catastrophic failure of the oil pan like this the mains and connecting rod bearings might be the first to go. Please check the bearing out and get back to us with what you are able to find out.
Thanks,
Alex
