what happened

Recently I found out what is like lose an injector (fuel on oil lots of fuel in the oil). Solved that, replaced #5 and changed oil and filter.That being fixed we're going home Las Vegas but at 22.8 miles (I know this because of my fill up there)from Beatty lots white smoke came out of the tailpipe and lost oil pressure.At 22.8 miles I was able to tell tow truck driver where I was.So now I'm hoping someone can tell me what happened. there was NO oil in crankcase when got home.
Is there anyone that help me?
THANK YOU SO MUCH

Start with looking for the obvious, drain plug not tight, fill cap not on, oil filter loose or the O ring blown off. Look everywhere to see where the oil went. These trucks hold 3 gallons of oil, so u should beable to find the leak location sumwhere

You need to take turbo apart and check for blown seal
