He must have blown a head gasket BAD, or worse. I'm not sure how'd you get coolant in the intake, but coolant in the oil is definitely blown head gasket territory. I'd beat his ***, lol.

It probably hydrolocked the motor

Liquid doesn't like to compress very well like air which could/would lead to bent/broken rods and/or cracks/holes in blocks, a small crack is all it takes to make the liquid (coolant) pour out into the oil pan.

I think he lied to you....From my own experiance no one ask to borrow a sports car just to go to wendys....they ask so they can beat the crap out of it.
