Whew, it seems a few periods are missing in your post, that makes it a bit confusing to attempt to read.
Does the start motor spin the engine over, it just doesn't start? Have you checked the voltage at the battery both with the key off and when trying to start the engine? What year is the car and which engine does it have? Did the oil leak out before you realized it so you are concerned the crankshaft may be seized up?
I guess I'm not sure what exactly happened, what you've done to fix the oil pan issue, or what you've tried to get it to start.
The more details you can provide, the faster we'll be able to offer reasonable suggestions.
