So the filter shouldn't be dry. But it ran 10+ minutes like this? That isn't believable to be honest. If oil weren't being returned to the tank, its contents would be used up in less than 10 minutes.
I'd suggest some diagnosis to figure out what's going on with the scavenge system causing it to operate inefficiently.
Here's a post showing a 911 oil system for reference

my engine should have burned all the oil in 10 mins? if all oil stays in the crankcase?
i will try to crank the engine with new oil and disconect the line to the tank
