Default Fried engine

I think I've cooked the engine. Will now only start under protest with jump leads and will idle under protest with my foot resting on the throttle. Clouds of oil smoke coming out of the exhaust. Yellow engine management light came on just before I switched off. TBH the engine seems to have an appetite for oil and I think I may have got caught out.
