Default oil question

just got a new car, an 87 cutlass cierra for a daily driver, and the damn thing started leaking oil, so i dumped a quart in there, now when i look at it this morning i am way over on my oil. i tried draining it but the damn drain plug was a wierd *** size and i couldnt find a socket to fit it. so...how bad it is to have too much oil in your car??

if it stays in there for too long the oil could could get on top of the piston and foam, mix in with the gas and cause some major problems
