Maybe, but proving the something else will be impossible. What are the possibilities if the mechanic actually caused it, as opposed to coincidental timing on a fairly high-mileage engine? He put no oil in it at the oil change? If that's the case, then the cluster would have told the OP that. The OP does not say the oil light was on. At this point it's all speculation, especially since the car is no longer in OP's possession.
