Default Overfilled Oil

I think the shop slightly overfilled my oil crankcase at the last oil change
on my 1989 Chevy S10 Blazer 4.3L 4x4....the dipstick is reading "off the
charts" and when I'm parked I get a small drip of very watery brown fluid (I
assume it's overfrothed oil) under the engine compartment. The fluid is not
warm and is very watery so I don't believe this fluid has been thru the
engine. Can a slightly overfilled crankcase cause any permanent damage? I
assume the excess will just drip out?
