Most probable is either a failed gasket or a cracked block. Water its heavier than oil, so it will go to the bottom of the drain pan.

That is a symptom not the problem. Sounds like a blown head gasket at best and at worst a cracked block or maybe a thrown rod that has resulted in a compromised engine water jacket. You could start with removing cylinder head(s) to see if the problem is obviously limited to a head gasket issue. Either way this will be a major expense to repair or replace the engine in all probability. Good luck sir.

That is fast if its a blown head gasket it but could be a cracked block i hope..if i could fix it then i think it will come right.it still seems to run on all 8 cylinders jus a rattle and not much oil flowing to the top

These vehicles come with either a v6 or an i4 engine only as manufactured. If it pours out the drain plug as fast as you pour it in, then the engine is likely unrepairable.
