Maintenance Error For Over 48 Hours Now Cannot Log In

Would an incorrect oil filter lead to engine failure?

I recently had my car serviced for a simple oil and filter change. Normally I perform this myself, however I recently moved to a complex where I cannot in their lot. Immediately after I pull out of the service center, the engine was running noticeably louder and very rough. I asked a tech to look at it, and he just stated that the engine is old is going to get louder (which is true, 218k miles). But this highly noticeable change only occurred after the service...

I take the car home, still running rough. After sitting for a day, I go to take the car out, and it stalls shortly after starting, and refuses to start. When turning the ignition, the belts move, but the engine does not start.

Later in the day I get the chance to open the hood and take a look; oil levels are fine, but then I go to inspect the filter, and it was just the incorrect one! The filter they installed was too small, for a different filtering setup, and was just loosely sitting in the filtering compartment.

I brought this to the attention of the service center, and they're stating that using an incorrect filter would not cause this... and that they can't accept responsibility because they didn't take the filter out themselves.

Basically my question is, can the use of an incorrect oil filter, which wouldn't provide a proper seal in the filter compartment, lead to an engine failure as discussed above, in such a short period of time?
