Engine blew up,

2001, 9-5 Aero wagon.
Here's what happened; Cruising at 65 on freeway, accelerated to 70 to let someone merge in. During boost, the engine bucked hard twice, then dead. Pulled off on shoulder and saw oil pour out. Car was home and I took some pictures of the damage. The oil pan is cracked.
Anyone have ideas where I should start? If it's the bottom end, is it new engine time?
I just put a new trans, tire, AC, and brakes so I want to balance my options before I junk it.
