Dear oil in flow

glad to hear it was a simple mistaken hole issue ---
made that mistake twice myself and once in a dory --
seriously though --
you should send a note to the head office ...
putting fluids in the wrong hole is a serious breech of duty in a service
bay
at the very least the manager should be made aware of his technicians
incompetence

good luck
