    That looks like your oil filter on the right! Either that is loose or punctured, that cable going into the engine looks like the oil level sensor which is either loose or is Jammed! So a trip to the scrapie £5-10 or a new one probably £40-50 replacing it yourself. It's and easy fix thought. About 45 minutes. Of course you will need to do an oil change as well.

    Oil pressure sensor leaking. Try tightening a quarter turn or some PTFE tape on threads first. If that cures it, sorted, if not buy a new one for about £10, 10 mins to change. You don't need to do another oil change.
