Diagnosis help

[Marlin0715]

I have a 2002 Grand Am Se 3.4L. Upon driving to school the car ran rough and died. Went to restarted the car and it fired drove about three feet and died again. When the tow truck brought it back to me I found it was leaking oil. This is not a daily driver and I am looking to repair this car but at a loss where to start.

I have had three suggestions: Crank Shaft Sensor, Cracked head, or issue with oil pump.

Any thoughts or guidance would be appreciated.

Do you have a check engine light on and if so what is the code?
Do you have antifreeze mixed into the engine oil creating a creamy brown substance in the oil filler cap?
Where is the oil leaking from?
