Think my car took a complete :q:q:q:q on me today!

Baby Powder the block, look for the new wet spot

Kinda like dating a fat chick
 
If you're not sure what the squeel was, I would do as suggested, get some super cheap oil, remove the serp belt, fill oil to proper level and start the car, see what happens

If motor is coming out throw walmart oil in it fire it up and see where its coming out. All those spots you mentioned can leak.

Blah, too late to do that now. Come home from work the other day and find the engine is already out. :( Guess I will just have to look for leaks when the engine goes back in. Whenever I did change the filter though, there was a drop of oil coming down from the oil pressure sensor. Maybe it finally gave away, but I am stripping her down right now, and it's about to be on an engine stand, so I will take the oil pan off and look at the damage. That crank is mighty hard to turn also, so pretty sure it's a bearing.

catch that engine pulling gremlin and ship him to me. i wish i could come home and find the engine to my 95 out. that would be awesome.
 
Lol, it was my dad. He just wants to hurry and get it over with. Well, this is very interesting, we looked at the rod bearings, nothing! Haven't took the mains off yet, but this is what we think happened. The cam gear jumped time, and that's what made the screeching sound, gear and the plate rubbing together. Took the heads off and rotated one set, worked fine, the other set which would be cylinder 5 and 6, their exhaust valves open at the same time, and on cylinder 8 the intake valves open with them.
 
Yup, come to the conclusion, the timing jumped way the hell off, cams on head are not even lined up. Looks like the timing chain has been eating away at the gears. Just like the SHO had problems, we are going to weld the gears. The oil turned out to be oil from the valve cover off when we let it run, didn't want to believe it because it looked like way to much oil, but apparently, it still had oil. So, this is a big relief.
 
This is an interference motor if the timing jumped that much you probably have bent valves
I would at least pull a head off and check.
