The dealer is required to carry liability insurance to cover any damages as a *result of repairs or workmanship. Glad to hear you had the oil changed at the dealer. They'll make immediate, permanent repairs no matter how expensive they may seem.
Have the car towed to the dealer who changed the oil *on their dime.NEW 2010 CAR BOUGHT IN BCS FIRST OIL CHANGE AT THE DEALER WHERE I BOUGHT IT AT 3300 MI DRAIN PLUG FELLOUT3DY?
Engine damage? Whatever the concerns, your dealer should be more than happy to make things right again.

My own personal experience?
Years ago, another yard worker and I got bored while working in a salvage yard after school and decided to see for ourselves how long an engine would run without any oil. We physically punched a large hole in the oil pan, hammered the filter clean off the block and cut the fan belts off the old Mercury and jumped started the engine. It run along fine for a minute or so (despite the lifters clattering away - very loudly) - we then bumped up the engine rpm's by jamming a piece of molding between the seat and the throttle - it ran for almost four minutes before it made several ungodly noises and literally screeched to an abrupt stop - crackling like pop corn and smoking like a mosquito machine for several minutes afterwards.
It seemed like that engine hammered away for hours before it bit the dust - but a little under 4 minutes, under the worst possible conditions, was the ';official'; tally.
No one would have driven this engine for more than 30 seconds or so with the extremely loud clattering noises that the lifters were making from the initial start up.
I fully understand your concern with your car - it's a new vehicle and now you are fully justified in your concern about the engine.
A similar occurrence happened at a dealership located close by, and the dealer towed the vehicle in (almost two miles away) and replaced the badly leaking filter, refilled the engine and there didn't seem to be any concern.
The owner, however, was adamant that he should have a new engine - after a short meeting with the owner, the dealer gave the customer a written warranty for 100,000 miles on the engine as assurance and several years later the same owner traded the vehicle in at the same dealership - he never experienced any engine concerns.
Got the paperwork from when the dealer touched it? That's going to be real important. Also, I hope you were able to stop right away, before the engine was ruined! Anyway, first dealer, then factory rep., then the car company, then court and the media, in that order. Good Luck!
