Check engine light illuminated. 02 sensor was blocked with oil. Failure of oil separator allowed oil to enter the sensor.

Dealer described as "catastophic oil-seperator failure". Engine started missing, within 1/4 mile I was engulfed in black smoke. $2,500 later.....Should a part just "catastrophically" fail?

Noticed some smoke at start up. No major change in the way it was running, but knew the smoke waan't right. also noticed some change in engine sound at start up. At the shop now, being repaired.
