Yes its running fine, I think if it had partially filled the cylinders to allow it to turn over it could of being a lot worse! As they were so full it just locked solid. Lucky

Yes all 4 heater plugs out try and turn by hand even if you have to put a socket or spanner on crankshaft nut turn engine over and engine should expel oil out of heater plug holes ? That's if oil has got into cylinders ,if it does expel oil chech oil level on dip stick to get some idea of how much oil is missing if not much turn key and oil should get spit out, may be before you do anything check oil level first as its so new if oil is down its hydrauliced oil in cylinders good look .

Very, it could of being a lot worse! i think the exhaust has a bit of oil in it though as when its on fast tickover or high revs it smokes like a god en! lad at Vermeer have said that it should clear with a bit of graft.
