They owe all "non-failed pump" affected owners a preventative pump replacement, and all owners who had a failure a 1) new motor or at least 2) full top-to-bottom engine inspection, oil system flush, new oil cooler, lines, etc. and bearings replacement including cam bearings and, new crank or cam if needed.

Probably stuff I'm missing, I'm not an expert that's my .02
It goes through the filter first.
I attached the oil flow diagram.
