Was that enough time to do damage to engine? If So what damage?

1994 Ford F150 4.9L (Straight Six for those who are American).

Misread dipstick. Stopped at store, got quart off oil, changed my mind and got gallon instead. Looked at dipstick again, still judged oil as low. So I added 1 quart in there. Then I added 3. They I dumped the whole bottle. Did this because dipstick looked dry even after adding said amount.

Drove home 22KM (15miles roughly). Got home, drained oil, changed it. Added 5 3/4 of oil and 25 ounces of Slick 50.

Start it up. Truck has very small soft tick. Can't even hear it form engine bay. Mostly hear it from drivers seat with door open.

Did I do damage? How long will it take to manifest or worsen?
Read somewhere that night that if oil overfill, it touches bottom of crankcase, gets whipped into a mixture of air and oil. Not good for lubrication. Causes way more friction.

Its been 3 days.

Overfilling can for sure cause damage but you did not drive it long enough to do any real damage. BTW your engine holds 6 quarts of oil with an oil/filter change. Adding Slick 50 is a complete waste of money. Use a High Mileage oil of the correct weight that Ford recommends and that is all you need.

You're an idiot, don't ever open your hood again. It's best for people like you to let a pro do the maintenance. As for your weak threats, fill your boots sunshine. My advice is for the truck, not your fragile ego.
