Misfires and flashing CEL

The indy's story keeps changing. They confirmed AOS failed and sent oil all over the place. But they go, "...but [AOS] has not failed externally (???) - the top of the engine is dry so most likely the leak from the bell housing is the rear main seal...

Thoughts on whether they'd both randomly fail at the same time? There was never leaking oil until the other day

Thanks!

Do you trust this shop? There’s an internal diaphragm that fails and that’s when it starts shooting oil into the intake. On the outside it’ll look fine. Have you seen the leak from the bell housing with your own eyes? I’ve never heard of them both failing at the same time.

I want to trust shops, but I’ve been burned many times, so I’m wary.

I drove for maybe two minutes after it failed because I was so close to home and didn’t want the tow, or to push it since it was late at night.
