E300 Diesel overfilled oil question

Hi all
I just purchased a 1996 E300 Diesel with 80k miles,
i drove it home and checked the oil and it was overfilled by about 1 quart, i immidenty drained it.
i am hoping that the car is not damaged from the over filled oil.
the oil was changed by the dealership, whome i just called, they said it should not have caused any damage.
i figure its fine, but i know too much oil will foam up due to the crank shaft, and result in low oil pressure.

overall the car is perfect, mabey im just being paranoid. any thoughts
