just died @ 65 on freeway..

Hey everyone, so I'm on my way to a job..in the fast lane, and the engine just turned off.. no warning at all or signs before hand that there was going to be a problem..
I had to cut off some big rigs to get off the freeway and luck there was an exit right where it happened. the brakes lasted about 20 seconds and had to e-brake to slow. as I had lost all my braking vacuum right off the bat.

ok so before i had the truck over to an unknown Mechanic. i';d like to get some advice on what it might be..

one thing i noticed when i was looking below to see if the fuel pump wires were still plugged in was that i have large oil leak and even the fuel pump is wet with oil.

as well as all the plugs for the trany.

my fuel filter has never been changed out,
nor has my computer.

i checked all fuses engine and cab.

when I turn it over the engine seems to turn over fine, but with no signs whatsoever of firing.

any thoughts?

thanks for any help

What year is your truck? What engine?
