If the pan was gooped up and cruddy, and the oil pump was as bad, the rest of the engine was probably the same. putting new oil in it, and running it for a while probably broke dramatic amounts of additional crud loose. I would drain and refill the oil again with a new filter. I would use 15-40 oil in the engine to boost pressure a little. If it still has poor pressure, and still smokes, it is probably due for a set of sleeves and crank bearings, along with valve guide repair and valve seating. Probably less than 1200 id you do the work. Pulling the pan and checking the oil pump cover for flatness and end play of the gears (.001 to .0005") using thin gaskets to set clearance can help. Leaks are either lived with or fixed. It would take extreme oil pressure to rupture the head gasket. it was probably leaking already. Jim
