The dealer should pay the full cost and i would suggest that if they don't then your next stop should be the CAB.

Absolutely bang on.

I would suggest that Getway enters into written correspondence only so that everything is recorded. Get some photos of the motor himself and get an independent assessment in any case. It will be small beer compared to the cost of repairs.

It is possible for oil starvation to occur even with plenty of oil: galley plug problem, oil pump worn out etc but, I would expect other components to be showing signs of it as well.
