I think you have a broken shaft the runs a pulley which is out of alignment with the flow of the belt causing both the belt to break and the oil leak. Do you have any pics of the problem?

Part of the broken belt might have ruined the crankshaft oil seal, Serpentine belts don't just break. The cause needs to be found and all of the pieces of the old belt need to be removed.
