My brother had the priveledge of breaking a SSS Stanza engine mount so the
engine dropped about 20cm on one side, punchering the oil filter...  but
being a Datto motor it drove perfectly to a service station about 5km
away....  I'd never seen a 5km trail of oil until then.

My brother had the same problem one night - SSS Pulsar.

He called me, as he had no idea what was wrong......he said...."the oil
light came on so i pulled over straight away". When I got there, Oil was
sprayed from one end of the engine bay to the other...... He had put the car
in for a service that day....and the mechanics (at a dealership!) put the
wrong filter on it - which had popped off. I guess the apprentice was on
that day!

We put a new filter on, and filled her up with oil.... and off he went.

Of course the next morning, he went straight back to the dealer, and they
re-imbursed him for the new filter/oil and did a full degrease of the engine
bay and underbody of the car.....Luckily, there was no eveidence of damage
to the engine...and the car is still running perfectly 2 years later.
