better hope it went all the through to the oil pan, I've seen bad things happen. If you have the magnet extension tool i'd go fishing for it or drain the oil and look in the pan to ensure its there.

if it fell down into the hole where you add oil, just take of your valve cover and get it. if it fell down into your spark plug holes, then u either gotta try to get it out with a magnet, or remove your head n get it.

It fell in the hole were the oil flows up from the block. Thank god for bendable magnets I was able to get it out. Thanks for the ideas!
