I had my oil and filter changed and the mechanic put 7 quarts of oil in what I'm sure is a 6 quart system. The diptick read about 3/8 of an inch above the full mark. I drove my truck about 50 miles before draining the extra quart out. Do you think my engine is damaged from this mishap?

50 miles aint much. The worse that would happen is some blowby. Maybe some oil in the intake and the air filter, nothing to worry about. Could plug up the MAF sensor, so if it starts runnign rough clean that.
