If you check the oil when the engine is cold and it looks empty, or as others have said, the wrong dipstick, but most likely it's because it's near empty if not empty. Change the oil and the filter if you haven't seized the engine by now. Should take 5 quarts. This summer heat is brutal on engines, take care of the oil situation now.
What weight oil? Will the 350 take synthetic if they make it for the correct weight?
