HPV Concerns

I dated a girl who has genital warts/hpv. I was unaware of this until after the fact she gave me oral sex. She has no sores in the mouth or oral areas, but does in fact have warts in the genital area. My question is, what are the chances of her transmitting hpv to me through her giving me oral sex? Or would I have to had contact with the infected area? Is it spread through hand to genital contact? Also does hpv infect the entire body when u have it or does in mostly stay in the infected area? A response to these questions would be greatly appreciated. I am very concerned about my health at this time.  It has been 3+ months since the oral conact and I seem to have no visible signs. Although i can't stop thinking about the "what if" option...
