Bottom line, one extra pint of oil isn't going to matter. An extra quart, then we can be talking about a problem

Similar situation. I've been using the 47 (or comparable version) and just put in 5 rather than measure out that last half. I believe it is 4.5 in the crankcase but then the filter and all other components are filled as well.
