Hi

Yes I'm afraid it does. The oil pump is usually in the sump, oil is pumped up to the top of the engine and lubricates the valve rods the piston rings and the big end bearings.

What do you do if you have too much oil in your engine?

If you overfilled your oil on accident do NOT drive the car. Either drain some oil yourself or have the car towed to a mechanic and have them drain some oil for you. If you do drive the car even with the oil overfilled by as little as by quarter quart the oil will foam up and do a LOT of damage including blow seals ruin cylinders ruin valvetrain ruin oil pump ruin pistons ruin rings ruin cylinder head ruin valve guides and more. At that point it would be cheaper to buy a whole new or rebuilt engine then to fix the old one.
