Pump explodes, debris ends up in the oil pump pick up tube which is part of the oil pan. The rest goes through a galley straight to the oil filter.
As long as they get shut down before bearing damage, a new pump, pan and blow out the oil passage to make sure no chunks are in it and good to go.
If cold really is a factor, I think you'd be fine in your part of the world.
Haven’t heard of it downunder but I see how it can happen.Is it caused by the oil turning almost to grease until the engine warms up
