2008 2.7 was leaking oil and had a injector acting up. Repair guy was changing the gaskets out and saw this, suggested I may need a new engine.

I paid for regular oil changes, but this makes me wonder if they actually happened.

Well, I cant comment on if you need a new engine or not. But I can say, I will keep on doing my own oil changes...lol. You don't mention how many miles. If it runs good, button it back up and keep on driving it.
