Depends on how well its been taken care of. There is no magic number that it just starts breaking down.

Don't know anything about the model. The oil pump should be mechanically locked in with the engine with the cam shaft along with the other essentials. If it drops from 30-0 then I would look at the pump drive connection first and then the pump. The noise you heard could be a crack in the pump casing or a snapped impeller blade. Don't even try to see how long it will run or how hot it gets. I have assumed your engine oil is clean and nothing has dropped into the sump. Paper diagnosis is dodgy since I can't question you. I had a Dodge truck in the army. Solid as a rock. If it was the Head Gasket it would sing like a canary and lose water before it lost oil.

those have good engines in them Chrysler did a recall on the and replaced the bottom gasket on the intake ,and that stooped them from using oil other than that i know of a few that have way over 200 k on them and their still going,if you take care of it there's no way of actually knowing how long it will last,but my neighbors has 223 thousand miles on it and still wont use any oil between changes,all he uses though is synthetic oil ,that may be why his has lasted so good,,good luck with it.

there is a gasket on the bottom plate of the intake manifold that will suck out and cause it to burn oil. chrysler revised the gasket from paper to metal, and once it is replaced it won't happen again.

Don't know, mine has 181,000 and don't burn oil yet.
It would depend on how well the engine was taken care of and the brand and type of oil used.
