I use coolant, however I'm wondering if the coolant temp is also estimated.
Upside, your engine is probably fine .. It ate some oil. Get some new lines if you want to use that catch can again. My opinion? Theyre pointless.
Edit: I've had to pull off a track before because I had an overheat and my engine is entirely fine.. just had to replace the spark plugs because you could tell the ceramic portion was brittle from the overheat.

Coolant was fine at just over 200.
I'm thinking that the check valve in the catch can system created pressure to the PCV hose and blew back into the intake tube
