Narrative:

While enroute unpressurized at 11;000 ft; we got a low oil press light and the oil pressure gauge read 0 psi. The left engine was shut down per emergency checklist. A single engine ILS was flown and we landed without incident. After shut down no oil was noted in the left engine sight gauge. No oil was visible leaking from the left gang drain. Oil level was in the normal range prior to takeoff.
