need help

I was driving my truck home (7.3 2001) and all of a sudden I lost power so I got out and raised the hood to find that all the oil was blowed out from somewhere under the turbo and around the fuel filter housing, I put 3 gallons of oil back in the truck and restarted to try to find where the oil was coming and cant find any oil leaks but the motor sounds like it isnt running on all cylinders and has not a lot of power, no check engine light is on and is holding perfect oil pressure, can anyone help me.

Thanks for the response what do you think would cause the loss of power and sounding like it is running on 7 cyl. rough idle and no power.
