oil pressure - dry filter

Is there any way to know if my oil pump is kaputt ?
I took off the oil filter --- and there was nothing inside.
4ac - Toyota corolla - no pressure guage-- (dummy light only)
( I did not notice the light )
There was a 4age oil cooler attached , maybe that is clogged ?
( removed )
It is my understanding if the filter plugs, the oil will just bypass.
and my oil is UBER dirty and thick... UBER...
( mobil-1 15w50 synthetic ) that i just changed....maybe less than 500 k ago. --- if that .... )
Any ideas about what is going on here ? I'm concerned.
( did somebody put Bar's leak in my oil , any opinions on how much damage that stuff might to to a engine and the oil ports )
