What's the turbo shaft like for play, side to side should be a very small amount, it shouldn't have push/pull play.
Bad times about the engine.

From those pics it looks to me more like the valves and Pistons have been burnt rather than damaged by the end of a glow plug. It doesn't look like impact damage. Looks to me like the turbo has failed causing the engine to burn its oil. If this were the case I carnt see why you would need a new dpf. Will just smoke a hell of a lot when first started.

The above is almost certainly the cause. The revs going sky high is a typical symptom of the engine running on from the engine oil as it's not governed by anything and will theoretically carry on running from the sump and revving up ro unforgiving RPM's before it either seizes up from running out of oil or in this case major engine failure. All other symptoms such as the lights coming on are probably from overoutput from the alternator.
