Ahh.... Crushed oil pan??? Were not there to visibaly inspect what could be broken. You will have to get a hoist to lift the engine up and inspect the damage. How did you have the jack holding your motor up with out motor mounts. Please dont tell me it was under the oil pan!!

That all depends, how far did it fall?
Did anything break? or just dent the oil pan a little?

You just need to inspect for any damage. We really couldnt tell you what could be broken not being there to see. Just look for and wires pulled out or connectors, axles for and damage to the cv boots, intake boot pulled off and any other things that could have been crushed by the weight of the motor. If you are wondering if you damaged the motor, my answer would be very doubtful.
