Yup, you've got no rings left or something similar. Either way oil is being pressurised in the sump by combustion gases in the cylinders, which aint good.

You wont be able to do a compression test if he says it wont even turn over.
Sounds like if it has drained all its out the dipstick then theres a possibility that its seized
