Engine Mechanical problem
1972 Chevy El Camino V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic ? miles

A plug wire was left off my engine,it was driven this way for a few miles.Put wire back on continued to drive car for a while.There is now a clunking on the bottom end.Found there to be gas in the oil,could this have messed up a bearing or a piston or ??

If oil was deluited for some time yes bearing damage can occur.Check fuel pump it maybe pumping oil into block.
