Contents of Oil Pan (Engine Failure)



I drained my oil pan to examine the contents before I started the 
head gasket replacement.

There was around 2 gallons of fluid in the sump. It was the 
consistency of water (or thinner) and just -rushed- out of the pan. 
It smelled like fuel and had a greenish tint like anti freeze. I'm 
glad I didn't run the engine long when all this happened. This stuff 
had almost no viscosity, or lubricating properties.

Does this jive with anyone's symptoms of blown headgaskets?
