If it won't turn over, it sounds like it's "hydrolocked" by water in a cylinder from a gaket leak or a crack.

What a MISTAKE to keep running it knowing oil was getting into the water!

The oil coolers DO fail, but while that will leak coolant into the oil, it would not leak into a specific cylinder and lock the engine... unless it has been run long enough that the bearings have seized!
