Seized motor becuase of oil pump?

So after finally gettign staryed on myseized motor we realized that it seized not becuase of an oil pan leak but because of the oil pump the car had plenty of oil left when drained and the oil pan lolled rusty but no craked we didnt open up to see how the oil pump is but we will. Anyways this would be the first time i hear of oil pump going, the car rearly its rev limit and doesn't have a rev extender so i dotm understand how the pil pump went the car has 113k miles! Are our oil pumps bad or could it have been something else?!
