Narrative:

Dispatch release said non-standard routing; but still filed on loop departure. First officer got pre departure clearance and missed a change to departure SID. Wording said - oshnn 3 - ; then next line said lax loop 4 dag J9 mlf delta 2 slc. Perhaps confusion expecting to see loop departure; and there it was. I never looked at pre departure clearance pg; and also was expecting loop; so did not question flight brief item on departure clearance. On departure; being vectored by socal; they then cleared us to point on oshnn departure. As pm I said we were on loop. They said should be on oshnn. They gave us another vector; told us to set up for oshnn; and then cleared us to sli on oshnn. Nothing more said. No deviations; just expecting vectors to a different departure. More attention to detail; especially when 'non standard routing' is on flight plan.
