Is that typical for that engine and mileage ???

I've got a buddy with a 2000 with a bad engine. He's been fighting engine codes and "distributor" issues for a while and now they're saying the crankshaft is bad. He said it had got hot at one time but no coolant leak. I'm wondering if coolant got into the oil and ruined the bearings.
