I really was incredibly lucky. The plug appeared to have impacted the underside of the intake manifold - or something. The hood wasn't dented, and the plug was lying beneath the manifold.
I've since talked to a couple other people who had it happen, who, unlike me, were in way worse locations when it occurred.
The PO of the car changed the plugs when he bought it, so the plugs are probably closer to five years old (maybe 35-40,000 miles). They're 2 electrode platinum plugs (or whatever).
I've been thinking it was time to do something with them (because they're so old) but the car runs great and the plugs looked like they were maybe a few months old - so I'll probably just wait. You can't argue with success... (or put another way, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it...").
