Like RR said , it is a bit confusing . Can you confirm that you actually did have the engine running for 3 seconds when you noticed the 0 oil pressure reading ?
The thing that the drive shaft enters at the back of the engine is the coupler and it wouldn't be the source of your problems . As it stands now , IMO , if the engine did start or even turn over for 3 seconds and now it's locked I would guess a very sudden water intrusion into a cylinder . The confusing part (number 2) is that you have all the plugs out now and it is still tight.

Note one thing,I had oil pressure all the time, the sender was faulty. Now with new sender, it shows pressure immediately. In between I had the sender off, turned 1 revolution and oil poured out. So this is not a no oil pressure problem.

Guys, I posted this long ago, and now I'd just like to update, I have bought another boat for my go-fast needs. A 2006 Baja 245 Boss, with the 425 HP HO. It's in really great shape. Not as wild as my previous 29 Outlaw with twin 6.2s. But: newer, better shape, trailerable, single engine, cheaper. Single engine was important to me, simplicty, and the joy of sitting in the engine room next to the engine instead of having no space and being a contortionist.
I'm now preparing it for winter and looking all the small stuff.
Which brings me to a question, the front pull up cleat won't stay up. How does it stay up? Taken it out, but can't see what keeps it up/deteriorated? Can I repair it? How generic are they if I were to buy a new one? The measurements I see e.g. on Eddie Marine says either 6" or 8", but mine is 7" long. Thanks
