pop off came out, epoxy in engine?

[clevy70911T]

Seems like I read a thread on this, but I cant find it now. I found some small pieces of epoxy in and around the hole after my pop off valve came out on Turkeyday. How concerned should I be with small pieces being drawn into the intake? Would they harm the engine if drawn into the cylinder. The car isnt at home and I need some advice to get her home. Thanks !!!!!!

Don't think it will be a problem, since installing the pop off valve involves drilling and plastic particles will end up in the same place and will get burned. Just clean out as much as possible with a vacuum cleaner and pop the valve back in and epoxy again when you get home.
