HUGE PROBLEM, NEED HELP! LEAKING LOTS OF OIL!
Okay, so I just ran over a big pothole (FIVE MINUTES AGO) and ran out of the car to check my bumper (make sure it's still intact) and i see a HUGE oil leak from my car.
I looked under the Audi ('96 A4, non-Q) and saw what I think (and have no idea) is a hole in the oil pan. A small hole, maybe the size of a pencil, but the problem is i don't know what it is that has the hole in it.
Is it the oil pan? I am leaking only oil, as far as i know. It's a rectangular, metal piece attatched underneath the engine. Is THIS the oil pan? I'm just trying to figure out what I will be needing to be fixed.
I'm stuck in Radford, four hours from home, and need to be at work at 300 PM tomorrow, which i'm already planning on missing since i'd suspect whatever shop I go to will have to special order something from Audi. Please help!!!!!!

ditto, do not drive the car....and buy a skid plate once it's fixed if you do not have one.
