Default 95 beretta high oil pressure won't start

Driving home from work Friday and my beretta was running very sluggish, low Rpm on the highway doing 65-70 and engine was around 1000-1500rpm, if you tried stepping on the gas it would start losing even more power. About 10 minutes of driving my oil pressure gauge went half past the 80 mark and the car stalled out on the highway. Now it won't start at all, it will turn over but when it goes to start it just clanks and won't start. Car has about 156k on it, only had it about 2 months. I'm guessing the motor is completely junk at this point. I did also notice a slight coolant leak underneath that wasn't there before as well as a lot of oil around my oil pan that also wasn't there before

Is that the 3.4l v6? or 3.1? I forget after 20 years of seeing one.

Is your fuel pump dead? Can you hear it prime at all? (not that that would mean it was working 100%).
