Stop in for a cup of coffee

On to next conundrum.
F150 grinds starter,almost like timing is off. But after listening to it crank, im thinking ring gear and bendix arent getting along very well.
I have a question for you.

Coworker has a suv with the ford ecoboost turbo v6. Took it in for an oil change, tech put on the WRONG oil filter, one that had the same diameter and thread pitch, however was a full 1.5 inches too short. Immediately after the oil change, she got in it and didn't even make it out of the parking lot before a trail of white smoke was pouring from the exhaust. had it towed, shop told her the turbocharger is puking oil. can a filter that's too short result in a spike in oil pressure to blow past the seals in the turbo? Thing only has 45,000 miles on it.
