Engine set on fire whilst driving!

Bad news for my ZX

 

Was driving along m25 when i noticed smoke coming from the engine and threw my vents. Quickly pulled to hard shoulder, opened bonnet to find my engine a complete blaze.

Flagged down a lorry who had a fire extinguisher put it out within a minuite.

 

However i think its still caused alot of damage :(

 

Garage reckons an oil hose has burst and leaked onto the manifold where the engine has caught light, will this be the end of the ZX........ who knows!
