too much oil?

my 98 recently started pouring smoke out the exhaust and idling a little roughly. suspecting the air/oil separator i had it towed to a shop... turns out the air/oil separator was just fine, but at a previous oil change the shop put in about 2 quarts too much oil... on a hard left turn the extra dumped into the intake. so it could be that simple, enough dumped into the intake that one of my cat's is basically fried, but fortunately no compression lock.
