the first thing to confirm is that the heater is plugged in to the block still. This seems silly, but if urs was plugged in and somebody tripped on it or u accidently drove away with it still plugged in that can pull it loose!
You will have to crawl under the car with a flashlightand look up beside the oil pan area, not far from your 02 sensor (on the gs anyway)
Other than that i would check the continuity on the plug ends...
If your element is burnt out then i dont envy you....
Best bet then is to get a magnetic oil pan heater...they are like $40 or so
