in the end I concluded the only risk of driving it home was FOD in the cylinder and that that risk was very low, below my threshold for accepting it.
500 miles on 5 cylinders, must be a recent record of some kind. Curious how much oil got spat out on the covers after 500 miles ?

Crud getting into the cylinder with the open plug hole is a good point. Hopefully the oil cooler area was relatively clean.
