A broken dog-bone will result in the lifter spinning and cam damage within mere seconds of the dog-bone failing. Seen it happen several times. The dog-bone failure had nothing to do with your stuck throttle cable. Failure of the dog-bone is actually more common than you might think. IMHO, you are well within your rights on the warranty.
