I parked the van for five days i went to start it after checking engine oil. Moving it to about 50 meters engine oil light comes on and after about five minutes the car seized/stop while engine oil light comes up steady with hard sound.

Good afternoon,

This sounds like you had an internal failure from running it without oil pressure. The loud knock was most likely the bearing. Does the engine crank at all at this point?
