[overtorque]

Hi -

New here and not for a good reason.

During an oil change, which I've done 2 previously on my own, I used a torque wrench that I had just bought trying to ensure that everything was done according to manual. I must have misunderstood the adjustments on the torque wrench - to the point I over-tightened the oil filter mounting bolt to where I not only crushed the filter but the metal bottom piece was shattered and the top part on the compartment housing the filter with the thread for the mounting bolt was stripped and destroyed. Apologies for not using specific part names I have been unable to find the details yet.

I don't know if I just totaled the entire engine, but that's my worry. Any and all help is appreciated, I've included some pictures of the damage as well.

Thanks
