Found out that my oil pressure sensor was leaking because it my hood was smoking a little bit. Turns out it was going bad and it spit out all my oil on my starter. My car clicks when it trying to start but nothing else. Lights and everything work but now my engine is locked. Can I save it?

Welcome to 2CarPros. You might still be able to save it depending on why the engine isn't moving. First you will want to see if you can turn the engine over by hand. To do that use a socket on the crankshaft bolt and see if the engine moves. If it won't move the likely issue is that the engine isn't salvageable. However I would remove the starter and try it again, it's possible the starter has locked the engine but I wouldn't expect much.
