I would raise the concern with Subaru of America so that it is at least noted going forward. I would not have accepted the car with the old oil filter, especially after a blown engine. That is pure hack BS. I wouldn't have completed the job as a service tech unless a new filter was charged to the job I was doing, heck I would have bought one myself just for the piece of mind.
